Impact of Piriformospora indica on Tomato
2013The endophytic fungus Piriformospora indica colonises roots of all plants, which have been tested up to now, showing in most cases positive impact on different parameters of plant performance. Tomato is the worldwide most consumed vegetable being part of the daily diet of many people and therefore of high economic importance.

Piriformospora indica: Perspectives and Retrospectives
2013Mycorrhizal fungi are relevant members of the rhizosphere mutualistic microsymbiont populations that provide a direct physical link between soil and plant roots to increase soil nutrient exploitation and transfer of minerals to the root due to symbiotic association with higher plants.

Piriformospora indica confers cadmium tolerance in Nicotiana tabacum
Journal of Environmental Sciences, 2015Piriformospora indica, a root-colonizing endophytic fungus of Sebacinales, promotes plant growth and confers resistance against biotic and abiotic stresses. In order to confirm the influence of P. indica on growth, proline, malondialdehyde (MDA), chlorophyll, and cadmium (Cd) amounts in Nicotiana tabacum under Cd stress, hydroponics, pot and field ...

Piriformospora Indica a Powerful Tool for Crop Improvement
Proceedings of the Indian National Science Academy, 2014Root-inhabiting Piriformospora indica has a great potential application in the pursuit of physiological and agronomical functional traits for crop improvement. P. indica imitates the aptitude of typical arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi in numerous realistic growth promotional aspects. Owing its exceptional advantage to be cultivated axenically, P.

Functions of Novel Symbiotic Fungus - Piriformospora Indica
Proceedings of the Indian National Science Academy, 2014A unique endophytic fungus, Piriformospora indica , isolated from the hot Thar desert, shows beneficial symbiotic associations with a wide range of host plants. This fungus promotes growth of the host plant in terms of seed germination, seedling growth, early flowering, enhanced fruiting and increase in the content of value addition products e.g ...

Cultivation of Piriformospora indica with Nanomaterial in Bioreactor
2017Piriformospora indica is an axenically cultivable root endophytic fungus which exerts plant growth-promoting effects on its host plants. To enable commercial production of its spores, Piriformospora indica was cultivated in association of nanostructured materials “zinc oxide” in a 7 L batch bioreactor called “nanoembedded fungus” a novel nano-tool such
