Lankesteriana, 2021 Mycorrhizal fungi are important partners of orchids because they establish close symbiotic relationships with this group of plants, and its preservation is also important for the successful conservation of orchids. In the present study, the conservation of Ceratobasidium sp., a fungal symbiont, using encapsulation in alginate beads was tested over ...

Novel Antifungal Activity of Lolium-Associated Epichloë Endophytes
Microorganisms, 2020 Asexual Epichloë spp. fungal endophytes have been extensively studied for their functional secondary metabolite production. Historically, research mostly focused on understanding toxicity of endophyte-derived compounds on grazing livestock.

The Diversity of Root-Associated Endophytic Fungi from Four Epiphytic Orchids in China
Diversity, 2021 Root-associated endophytic fungi (RAF) are found asymptomatically in almost all plant groups. However, little is known about the compositions and potential functions of RAF communities associated with most Orchidaceae species.

Small RNA Analyses of a Ceratobasidium Isolate Infected with Three Endornaviruses. [PDF]
Viruses, 2022 Isolates of three endornavirus species were identified co-infecting an unidentified species of Ceratobasidium, itself identified as a symbiont from within the roots of a wild plant of the terrestrial orchid Pterostylis vittata in Western Australia ...

First Report of Ceratobasidium sp. Causing Root Rot of Garlic in China
Plant Disease, 2020 Garlic (Allium sativum L.) is an important cash crop in China. In the spring of 2018, stunted and chlorotic plants in some garlic fields were observed in Jinxiang, Shandong, and Feng Counties, Jiangsu Province, in China. The growth of symptomatic plants was weaker, with affected plants showing signs of apical chlorosis, wilting, and dieback.

Plants, 2021 Asexual Epichloë sp. endophytes in association with pasture grasses produce agronomically important alkaloids (e.g., lolitrem B, epoxy-janthitrems, ergovaline, peramine, and lolines) that exhibit toxicity to grazing mammals and/or insect pests.

How does metal soil pollution change the plant mycobiome?
Environmental Microbiology, Volume 25, Issue 12, Page 2913-2930, December 2023., 2023 Abstract Microorganisms play a key role in plant adaptation to the environment. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of toxic metals present in the soil on the biodiversity of plant‐related, endophytic mycobiota. The mycobiome of plants and soil from a Zn–Pb heap and a metal‐free ruderal area were compared via Illumina sequencing of the ...

The Plant Journal, Volume 116, Issue 2, Page 416-431, October 2023., 2023 SUMMARY Orchid mycorrhiza (OM) represents an unusual symbiosis between plants and fungi because in all orchid species carbon is provided to the host plant by the mycorrhizal fungus at least during the early stages of orchid development, named a protocorm.

Novel insights into orchid mycorrhiza functioning from stable isotope signatures of fungal pelotons
New Phytologist, Volume 239, Issue 4, Page 1449-1463, August 2023., 2023 Summary Stable isotope signatures of fungal sporocarps have been instrumental in identifying carbon gains of chlorophyllous orchids from a fungal source. Yet, not all mycorrhizal fungi produce macroscopic sporocarps and frequently fungi of different taxa occur in parallel in orchid roots.

Endophytic Fungi of Bitter Melon \u3ci\u3e(Momordica Charantia)\u3c/i\u3e in Guangdong Province, China [PDF]
, 2018 Endophytic fungi can mutualistically interact with their host plants by deterring herbivores. Overall 1172 endophytic fungal isolates were recovered from roots, stems, leaves, flowers and fruits of bitter melon, Momordica charantia, at five sites in ...
