Comparative Metabarcoding of ITS1, ITS2, and Full‐Length ITS Reveals Marker‐ and Tissue‐Specific Variation in Fungal Community Profiling in Potato

open access: yesPlant-Environment Interactions, Volume 7, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Accurate profiling of plant‐associated fungal and oomycete communities depends critically on the choice of ITS marker. Using Illumina sequencing for ITS1/ITS2 and PacBio HiFi sequencing for full‐length ITS (ITSf), we compared read recovery, taxonomic assignment depth, and diversity patterns across potato leaf and root tissues.

Endophytes and recovery from grapevine yellows disease

open access: yes, 2012
Plants are naturally associated with different kind of microorganisms. Endophytic bacteria or fungi colonize the host plant systemically, without damaging the host or eliciting symptoms of plant disease according to widely used definition (Quispel, 1992).

An Integrated Assessment of European Soil Health and Restoration Potential

open access: yesJournal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Soils host a significant proportion of biodiversity on Earth providing ecosystem functions vital to human well‐being, making it imperative to include them and their ecological features when addressing sustainability goals. We performed a comprehensive assessment of soil health across Europe by explicitly integrating biotic and abiotic ...

Employing foliar endophytes as biocontrol agents [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Foliar fungal endophytes are microscopic fungi present in all plant species. These organisms can reduce pest feeding on plant hosts through the production of unpalatable chemicals.

Agronomic Performance and Microbial Diversity of Wheat Following Organic and Synthetic Seed Treatments: A Three‐Year On‐Farm Swiss Field Study

open access: yesJournal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Environmental stressors on the agricultural field are increasing, from global warming to the rise of the human population. Among the resulting challenges, plant diseases remain one of the most important causes of crop losses worldwide.

Secrets of Plants: Endophytes

open access: yes, 2018
Endophytic fungi are an important component that colonizes in healthy tissues of living plants and can be readily isolated from any microbial or plant growth medium.

Is the endophyte‐based plant protection against aphids mediated by changes in the insect microbiome?

open access: yesInsect Science, Volume 33, Issue 3, Page 1097-1108, June 2026.
We showed that the fungal endophyte Epichloë strain AR37 increased the plant resistance against aphids via the production of indole diterpene alkaloids. The reduction in aphid performance was not associated with changes in abundance/composition/diversity of the insect's bacterial microbiota, but additional endophyte effects on this microbiota cannot be

Pilliga Ghosts: The Novel Fungi of the Rivers, Creeks, Lakes, and Dams of the Narrabri Region, Australia

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 3, June 2026.
Freshwater systems of the semi‐arid Narrabri region, Australia, are hotspots of novel fungal and eukaryote diversity, dominated by zoosporic fungi and unclassified lineages. ITS‑based DNA and water chemistry analyses across various water bodies revealed strong seasonal patterns, a scarcity of aquatic hyphomycetes that may reflect environmental ...
