The Epichloë festucae Antifungal Protein Efe-AfpA Is also a Possible Effector Protein Required for the Interaction of the Fungus with Its Host Grass Festuca rubra subsp. rubra

Microorganisms, 2021
Strong creeping red fescue (Festuca rubra subsp. rubra) is a commercially important low-maintenance turfgrass and is often naturally infected with the fungal endophyte Epichloëfestucae. Epichloë spp.

Epichloë seed transmission efficiency is influenced by plant defense response mechanisms

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Asexual Epichloë are endophytic fungi that form mutualistic symbioses with cool-season grasses, conferring to their hosts protection against biotic and abiotic stresses.

Complete Genome Sequence of Paenibacillus sp. Strain E222, a Bacterial Symbiont of an Epichloë Fungal Endophyte of Ryegrass. [PDF]

, 2020
We report on the whole-genome sequence of Paenibacillus sp. strain E222, a bacterium isolated from a fresh culture of Epichloë festucae var. lolii, a mutualistic fungal endophyte of perennial ryegrass. The genome has a size of 7.8 Mb and a G+C content of

Silicon and Epichloë-endophyte defences in a model temperate grass diminish feeding efficiency and immunity of an insect folivore [PDF]

, 2023
Plants deploy diverse anti-herbivore defences which reduce feeding and performance of herbivores. Temperate grasses use silicon (Si) accumulation and Epichloë-endophytes for physical and chemical (i.e.

Global Changes in Asexual Epichloë Transcriptomes during the Early Stages, from Seed to Seedling, of Symbiotum Establishment

Microorganisms, 2021
Asexual Epichloë fungi are strictly seed-transmitted endophytic symbionts of cool-season grasses and spend their entire life cycle within the host plant.

Interactions between silicon and alkaloid defences in endophyte-infected grasses and the consequences for a folivore

, 2022
1. Grasses have developed a wide range of morphological and physiological mechanisms to resist herbivory. For instance, they accumulate silicon (Si) in tissue, as physical defence, and associate symbiotically with foliar Epichloë-endophytes that provide ...

Epichloë Fungal Endophytes Influence Seed-Associated Bacterial Communities

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Seeds commonly harbour diverse bacterial communities that can enhance the fitness of future plants. The bacterial microbiota associated with mother plant’s foliar tissues is one of the main sources of bacteria for seeds.
