Mutualism effectiveness and vertical transmission of symbiotic fungal endophytes in response to host genetic background
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2012-12)
Certain species of the Pooideae subfamily develop stress tolerance and herbivory resistance through symbiosis with vertically transmitted, asexual fungi. This symbiosis is specific, and genetic factors modulate the ...
Fungal root symbionts and their relationship with fine root proportion in native plants from the Bolivian highlands above 3700 meters elevation
(Springer, 2011-07)
Here, we examined the colonization by fungal root symbionts in the cultivated Andean grain Chenopodium quinoa and in 12 species that dominate plant communities in the Bolivian Altiplano above 3,700 m elevation and explore ...
Symbiosis with systemic fungal endophytes promotes host escape from vector-borne disease
(Springer, 2017-03)
Plants interact with a myriad of microorganisms that modulate their interactions within the community. A well-described example is the symbiosis between grasses and Epichloë fungal endophytes that protects host plants from ...
The bacterial and fungal communities associated with Anthurium ssp. leaves: Insights into plant endemism and microbe association
(Elsevier B.V., 2021-03-01)
It is known that different plant species select specific microbes to live inside their tissues in a process determined by the host genotype, phenotype and geographic location, which can introduce discussion on plant endemism ...
Neotyphodium fungal endophyte in tall fescue (Schedonorus phoenix): a comparison of three Northern European wild populations and the cultivar Kentuky-31
(Springer, 2013-05)
Pooideae grasses may be colonized by systemic fungal endophytes. The fitness of endophyte depends entirely on resources and seed transmission from the host plant, while colonized plants may gain increased survival, growth, ...
Seed-transmitted Epichloë sp. endophyte alleviates the negative effects of head smut of grasses (Ustilago bullata) on Bromus auleticus
(Elsevier, 2017-10)
Some grasses are co-infected by ‘castrator’ fungal pathogens, such as Ustilago bullata, and beneficial seed-transmitted Epichloë endophytes that compete for plant photosynthates and flowers. Epichloë-infected (E+) and ...
Germination response of endophytic Festuca rubra seeds in the presence of arsenic
(Wiley, 2013-03)
Epichloë fungal endophytes colonize the intercellular space of aerial organs of their plant hosts without causing symptoms. These symbionts are known to improve the performance of their host grasses in some situations of ...
Fungal endophytes help prevent weed invasions
(Elsevier, 2013-01)
This study tested whether the endophyte-promoted competitive superiority of forage grass can be used in biological weed control. Feasibility of endophytes in weed control was tested by manipulating endophyte colonization ...
Studies on diversity of foliar fungal endophytes of naturalised trees from Argentina, with a description of Haplotrichum minutissimum sp. nov
(Elsevier Gmbh, 2008-10)
An ecological investigation of foliar endophytic fungal communities on Broussonetia papyrifera, Celtis occidentalis and Ligustrum lucidum was carried out in the natural reserve Dr. Carlos Spegazzini, Buenos Aires, Argentina. ...
