DOI: 10.1002/ece3.9618
Abstract: Abstract Increases in the frequency and intensity of hurricanes influence the structure, function, and resilience of Caribbean forests. Trees in such forests harbor diverse fungal endophytes within leaves and roots. Fungal endophytes often are important… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00438-018-1510-x
Abstract: Development of grass–endophyte associations with minimal or no detrimental effects in combination with beneficial characteristics is important for pastoral agriculture. The feasibility of enhancing production of an endophyte-derived beneficial alkaloid through introduction of an additional… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00572-017-0794-8
Abstract: Grasses can be infected simultaneously by endophytic fungi and arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi. In this study, we tested the hypothesis that endophyte-associated drought resistance of a native grass was affected by an AM fungus. In… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10811-017-1367-0
Abstract: Morphological changes—such as dark spots, twisted stipes and deformed blades—have been observed in wild and cultivated Saccharina latissima. The putative cause for the disease symptoms is the filamentous endophytic brown alga Laminarionema elsbetiae, which is… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s11104-017-3216-y
Abstract: AimsPlants affect each other by modifying soils conditions in plant-soil feedbacks, where associated microbes have an integral role. Since epichloid endophytes and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) are highly widespread grass symbionts, here we explore the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s13199-020-00690-z
Abstract: Chemical crosstalk between plant roots and associated microbes is imperative for the initiation of symbiosis. Phenolics, flavonoids and indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) are acclaimed as signaling molecules in developing plant-microbe symbiosis. The role of IAA and… read more here.
