Different group of alkaloids are produced during the symbiotic development of fungal
endophytes of the genus Epichloë in grass. The structure and toxicity of the compounds vary …

Background and aims The endophytic fungus Epichloë bromicola forms mutualistic
symbiotic associations with wild barley (Hordeum brevisubulatum) in the saline-alkali areas …

For 30 years, forage ryegrass breeding has known that the germplasm may contain a
maternally inherited symbiotic Epichloë endophyte. These endophytes produce a suite of …

Asexual species of the genus Epichloë (Clavicipitaceae, Ascomycota) form endosymbiotic
associations with Pooidae grasses. This association is important both ecologically and to the …

Asexual Epichloë are endophytic fungi that form mutualistic symbioses with cool-season
grasses, conferring to their hosts protection against biotic and abiotic stresses. Symbioses …

Epoxy-janthitrems are a class of indole diterpenes with structural similarity to lolitrem B. Two
taxa of asexual Epichloë endophytes have been reported to produce epoxy-janthitrems, Lp …

内生真菌侵染禾草既可提高宿主植物在群落中的竞争力, 又可引起家畜中毒,
因其特殊的双重特性而受到国内外学术界的广泛关注. 由于禾草内生真菌具有宿主特异性使其 …
