Endophytic fungi are abundant and have been reported from all tissues such as roots,
stems, leaves, flowers, and fruits. In recent years, research into the beneficial use of …

The potential of endophytes, particularly endophytic fungi, capable of demonstrating
desirable functional traits worth exploitation using red biotechnology is well established …

Microbes colonizing the inner part of plants, viz., root, stem, or seeds, are referred to as
endophytes. Diverse groups of microbes (archaea, bacteria, and eukarya) have been …

Increased understanding of the interactions between endophytic fungi and plants has led to
the discovery of a new generation of chemical compounds and processes between …

Horizontally transmitted endophytes are an ecological group of fungi that infect living plant
tissues and survive in them without causing any disease symptoms. Even as facets of the …

Microbial biodiversity is a continuing problem in the estimates of overall biodiversity. A great
extent of our knowledge about microbes results from the approximately 1% of culturable …

Bioactive natural products from endophytic fungi, isolated from higher plants, are attracting
considerable attention from natural product chemists and biologists alike as indicated by the …

Horizontally transmitted fungal endophytes are an ecological group of fungi, mostly
belonging to the Ascomycota, that reside in the aerial tissues and roots of plants without …

In the continual search by both pharmaceutical and agricultural industries for new products,
natural selection has been found to be superior to combinatorial chemistry for discovering …

Endophytic fungi are those that live internally in apparently healthy and asymptomatic hosts.
Endophytic fungi appear to be ubiquitous; indeed, no study has yet shown the existence of a …
