The biosynthetic potential of endophytic fungi has gained impetus in recent times owing to
the continual discovery of fungal endophytes capable of synthesizing plant compounds …

Microbial plant pathogens have evolved a variety of strategies to enter plant hosts and
cause disease. In particular, biotrophic pathogens, which parasitize living plant tissue …

Hemibiotrophic fungal plant pathogens represent a group of agronomically significant
disease‐causing agents that grow first on living tissue and then cause host death in later …

Many fungi belonging to mostly Ascomycota inhabit living tissues of plants of all major
lineages without causing any visible symptoms. Termed horizontally transmitted …

The mechanisms underpinning broad compatibility in root symbiosis are largely unexplored.
The generalist root endophyte Piriformospora indica establishes long-lasting interactions …

The purpose of this chapter is to provide a practical and theoretical framework for the study
of the ecophysiology of mycoheterotrophic plants. We accomplish this by providing a …

Fungi and oomycetes that colonize living plant tissue form extensive interfaces with plant
cells in which the cytoplasm of the microorganism is closely aligned with the host cytoplasm …

A historical retrospect and a taxonomic update will deal with Sebacina sl and s. str.,
Craterocolla, Efibulobasidium, Serendipita, Tremellodendron, Tremelloscypha …

Piriformospora indica, a unique root endophytic basidiomycete, exhibits symbiotic
association with a variety of host plants. Spacio-temporally, the biphasic lifestyle of the …

Volvariella volvacea is one of a few commercial cultivated mushrooms mainly using straw as
carbon source. In this study, the genome of V. volcacea was sequenced and assembled. A …
