Water Deficit Does Not Compromise the Resistance to Insect Herbivores in Plants Associated With Fungal Endophytes Able to Produce Bioactive Alkaloids

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT 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‐

Diversity of fungal endophytes in the semi evergreen vine thickets of the southern Brigalow Belt bioregion and their production of antimicrobial secondary metabolites. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Endophytes are thought to make up at least half of the diversity within the fungal kingdom and yet they remain one of the least explored functional groups.

Fungal endophytes with anti-fungal metabolites reduce symptoms of ash dieback in Fraxinus excelsior in a greenhouse experiment [PDF]

open access: yes
European ash trees (Fraxinus excelsior) are threatened by the non-native fungal pathogen Hymenoscyphus fraxineus, which causes crown dieback and root collar necroses.

Leaf Structure and Hormonal Balance Modulate Host‐Specificity and Pathogenicity of Botrytis cinerea

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Botrytis cinerea, a highly successful necrotrophic fungal plant pathogen, demonstrates a remarkably broad host range, yet the precise factors governing its host specificity and its ability to coexist non‐pathogenically with plants remain unclear. This study systematically assessed host preference in a series of B. cinerea agricultural isolates,

Ecological Filtering by Tuber Compartments Shapes Stable Core Microbiomes That Underpin Potato Plant Growth Across Environments

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Harnessing plant microbiomes for sustainable agriculture requires understanding not only whether they can boost crop performance, but also how ecological processes govern their assembly, stability, and functional contributions across environments.

Fungal Endophytes as Mitigators against Biotic and Abiotic Stresses in Crop Plants. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Fungi (Basel)
The escalating global food demand driven by a gradually expanding human population necessitates strategies to improve agricultural productivity favorably and mitigate crop yield loss caused by various stressors (biotic and abiotic).

Strawberry micropropagation simplifies endomicrobiome and highlights potential for in vitro biotization with beneficial rhizobacteria

open access: yesPlant Biology, EarlyView.
Prolonged in vitro micropropagation reshaped the strawberry endomicrobiome, reducing bacterial diversity and community complexity. Biotization with selected plant growth‐promoting bacteria partially compensated for these changes by improving plant performance and acclimatization, supporting microbiome‐assisted approaches for tissue culture systems ...

Priming of Plant Defenses against Ophiostoma novo-ulmi by Elm (Ulmus minor Mill.) Fungal Endophytes

open access: yes, 2021
Some fungal endophytes of forest trees are recognized as beneficial symbionts against stresses. In previous works, two elm endophytes from the classes Cystobasidiomycetes and Eurotiomycetes promoted host resistance to abiotic stress, and another elm ...

Fusarium verticillioides seed inoculation modifies maize cell wall responses to subsequent Sesamia nonagrioides infestation

open access: yesPlant Biology, EarlyView.
Prior seed inoculation with Fusarium verticillioides altered the maize cell wall response to Sesamia nonagrioides attack. The combined biotic interaction promoted specific changes in lignin composition and hydroxycinnamate accumulation, suggesting that stress history modulates inducible structural defences.
