Establishing Fungal Entomopathogens as Endophytes: Towards Endophytic Biological Control [PDF]
Beauveria bassiana is a fungal entomopathogen with the ability to colonize plants endophytically. As an endophyte, B. bassiana may play a role in protecting plants from herbivory and disease. This protocol demonstrates two inoculation methods to establish B.

Microbial Life Inside Posidonia Seeds: Beneficial Endophytes and Implications for Marine Plant Health. [PDF]
Seagrass Posidonia oceanica seeds host diverse bacterial and fungal endophytes with plant‐growth–promoting traits, including nitrogen fixation and hormone production. These microbes may be vertically transmitted and support seedling establishment, offering insights for marine plant conservation and biotechnological applications.

Abstract Maize is a vital global crop, and each seed (kernel) hosts an ecosystem of microbes living inside it. However, we know very little about these endophytes and what their role is in plant production and physiology. In this Microreview, I summarize the major questions around maize seed endophytes, including what organisms are ...

Aspergillus conicus Endophyte Improves the Development of Eucalyptus camaldulensis Seedlings In Vitro. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Fungi of the genus Aspergillus promote plant growth and resistance, enhance nutrient uptake, protect plants against pathogens, and increase tolerance to environmental stress. We examined the symbiosis between Aspergillus conicus and seedlings of Eucalyptus camaldulensis, a forest species widely grown in Brazil for its valuable wood and ...

Endohyphal bacterium enhances production of indole-3-acetic acid by a foliar fungal endophyte. [PDF]
Numerous plant pathogens, rhizosphere symbionts, and endophytic bacteria and yeasts produce the important phytohormone indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), often with profound effects on host plants.

Effect of Host, Environment and Fungal Growth on Fungal Leaf Endophyte Communities in Taiwan
Fungal endophytes inhabit plant tissues without causing disease symptoms. They are highly diverse and distributed globally in all plants that have been investigated.

Fungal endophyte (Epichloë festucae) alters the nutrient content of Festuca rubra regardless of water availability. [PDF]
Festuca rubra plants maintain associations with the vertically transmitted fungal endophyte Epichloë festucae. A high prevalence of infected host plants in semiarid grasslands suggests that this association could be mutualistic.
