Water Deficit Does Not Compromise the Resistance to Insect Herbivores in Plants Associated With Fungal Endophytes Able to Produce Bioactive Alkaloids. [PDF]
Plant Cell EnvironABSTRACT Plants growing in nature are exposed to multiple abiotic and biotic stressors that sometimes occur sequentially. We hypothesised that drought will not compromise the resistance levels to herbivores when plants are associated with Epichloë endophytes able to produce bioactive alkaloids. Lolium perenne plants without (nil) and with Epichloë LpTG‐

Direct classification of related species of fungal endophytes (Epichloëspp.) using visible and near-infrared spectroscopy and multivariate analysis [PDF]
FEMS Microbiology Letters, 2008 The aim of this work was to investigate the potential of visible and near-infrared (Vis-NIR) reflectance spectroscopy for the classification of three morphologically similar species of fungal endophytes of grasses. Vis-NIR spectra (400-2498 nm) from 34 isolates of Epichloë sylvatica, 32 of Epichloë typhina and 38 of Epichloë festucae were recorded ...

iScience, 2022 Summary: Upon exposure to the prevailing environment, leaves become increasingly colonized by fungi and bacteria located on the surface (epiphytic) or within (endophytic) the leaves.

Journal of Fungi, 2021 In the long-term evolutionary process, Achnatherum inebrians and seed-borne endophytic fungi, Epichloë gansuensis, formed a mutually beneficial symbiosis relationship, and Epichloë gansuensis has an important biological role in improving the tolerance of

Vegetative hyphal fusion and subsequent nuclear behavior in Epichloë grass endophytes. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Epichloë species (including the former genus Neotyphodium) are fungal symbionts of many agronomically important forage grasses, and provide their grass hosts with protection from a wide range of biotic and abiotic stresses.

Origin, divergence, and phylogeny of asexual Epichloë endophyte in Elymus species from western China. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Asexual Epichloë species are likely derived directly from sexual Epichloë species that then lost their capacity for sexual reproduction or lost sexual reproduction because of interspecific hybridization between distinct lineages of sexual Epichloë and/or

Journal of Fungi, 2022 Plants harbor a variety of fungal symbionts both above- and belowground, yet little is known about how these fungi interact within hosts, especially in a world where resource availability is changing due to human activities.

Higher Temperature and Host Age Alter Infection Outcomes in a Multi-Pathogen System. [PDF]
Ecol EvolWarming, host age, and pathogen identity shaped disease outcomes more strongly than co‐infection in a factorial experiment with two fungal pathogens on tall fescue. Higher temperatures generally reduced disease severity, while host age modified responses‐older plants were more resistant in some contexts, but this depended on temperature and pathogen ...

Knowing your neighbourhood—the effects of Epichloë endophytes on foliar fungal assemblages in perennial ryegrass in dependence of season and land-use intensity [PDF]
PeerJ, 2018 Epichloë endophytes associated with cool-season grass species can protect their hosts from herbivory and can suppress mycorrhizal colonization of the hosts’ roots. However, little is known about whether or not Epichloë endophyte infection can also change
