Description

Of Eurasian temperate zone origin, Cocksfoot was introduced to the eastern United States in 1760. It is now found throughout most of U.S., except for desert or arctic regions, and also grows in the temperate regions of Africa (Kenya, Tanzania, Rhodesia, S. Africa), Australia (NSW, Victoria, and other areas of southern Australia) and South America (Brazil, Colombia, Venezuela, Argentina). It is widespread in Europe and temperate Asian regions such as Japan, where it is a major pollen source. It is one of the commonest grasses, and is widely used for forage and hay. It is one of the best grasses for cultivating in shady areas.

Cocksfoot grass pollen is a very common allergen inducing asthma, allergic rhinitis and allergic conjunctivitis. Copyright Copyright © 2006 Phadia AB. Source: ImmunoCap, ImmunoCap
