This book considered the biological, ecological, toxicology, and chemical aspects of
research topics as they relate to endophytes of grasses. Several chapters reflect the very …

Mutualistic interactions between species are receiving increased attention from ecologists,
although research lags far behind analogous work on competition or predator-prey …

This chapter considers the potential role of endophytes in a broad context of community-and
ecosystem-level processes. The numbers and productivity of herbivores and predators may …

This chapter provides researchers with the basic information and techniques for examining,
culturing, and manipulating grass endophytes. These techniques vary from simple to …

Endophytes are the microorganisms that reside inside healthy plant tissues without causing
any detectable disease symptoms to the host. Often, each and every plant harbours either …

Fungi are important in mysterious ways and mysterious in important ways. Part of their
charm is that much of their lives is hidden from our view–hidden by the microscopic size of …

Ascospore discharge, isolation from grass tissues, seedlings and seeds and isolate
variations in relation to the isolation of endophytic fungi of grasses (EFG) are discussed …

Endophytes are symptomless fungal or bacterial microorganisms found in almost all living
plant species reported so far. Most of the endophytes form a symbiotic association with their …

The many fascinating aspects of biotechnology in endophytic studies not only concern their
interactions with plants but their potential as key players driving the synthesis of certain …

Background: The asymptomatic fungal endosymbionts of plants called the endophytes are
universal in their occurrence. The occurrence of some entomopathogenic fungi which infect …
