Fungal endophyte diversity in Sarracenia. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Fungal endophytes were isolated from 4 species of the carnivorous pitcher plant genus Sarracenia: S. minor, S. oreophila, S. purpurea, and S. psittacina.

Leaf endophyte load influences fungal garden development in leaf-cutting ants [PDF]
BMC Ecology, 2012 Background Previous work has shown that leaf-cutting ants prefer to cut leaf material with relatively low fungal endophyte content. This preference suggests that fungal endophytes exact a cost on the ants or on the development of their colonies.

SOLiD-SAGE of endophyte-infected red fescue reveals numerous effects on host transcriptome and an abundance of highly expressed fungal secreted proteins. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 One of the most important plant-fungal symbiotic relationships is that of cool season grasses with endophytic fungi of the genera Epichloë and Neotyphodium.

Environmental factors and host genetic variation shape the fungal endophyte communities within needles of Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris) [PDF]
, 2022 To determine the role of environmental and host genetic factors in shaping fungal endophyte communities we used culturing and metabarcoding techniques to quantify fungal taxa within healthy Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris) needles in a 7-y old provenance ...

Fungal endophyte diversity in soybean [PDF]
Journal of Applied Microbiology, 2013 To determine the identity and diversity of endophytes in soybean plants using culture-dependent (CD) and culture-independent (CI) methods.Stem samples were collected from three field-grown soybean cultivars grown to a reproductive stage in Minnesota, USA. Samples were surface disinfested, and CD and CI methods were used to assess the endophytes.

Host genotype shapes the foliar fungal microbiome of balsam poplar (Populus balsamifera) [PDF]
, 2013 Foliar fungal communities of plants are diverse and ubiquitous. In grasses endophytes may increase host fitness; in trees, their ecological roles are poorly understood.
