This study aimed to evaluate the ability of Piriformospora indica to colonize the root of
Chenopodium quinoa and to verify whether this endosymbiont can improve the growth …

An axenically cultivable Mycorrhiza-like-fungus has been described by Varma and his
collaborators. The fungus was named Piriformospora indica based on its characteristic pear …

One of the emerging systems in plant–microbe interaction is the study of proteins, referred to
as effectors, secreted by microbes in order to modulate host cells function and structure and …

Plants have a great potential to grow while carrying inside them fungi and bacteria known as
endophytes. These endophytes have a potential to produce bioactive molecules which are …

Fungal endophytes live symbiotically within healthy plant tissues and found to be associated
with all host plants studied till date in all natural ecosystems with varied geographical areas …

Abstract The herb Stevia rebaudiana Bertoni is an important sugar substitute due to the
presence of steviol glycosides-mainly stevioside and rebaudioside-A. These compounds …

The present study was undertaken to investigate the amelioration of drought stress in
Solanum melongena L. cultivars (Arka Shirish and F1 hybrid) upon Piriformospora indica …
