There is an increasing interest in determining the influence of global change on plant–
microorganism interactions. We review the results of experiments that evaluated the effects …

Plants have evolved elaborate surveillance systems that allow them to perceive the attack by
pests and pathogens and activate the appropriate defenses. Mechanical stimulation, such …

Many grasses are simultaneously symbiotic with Epichloë fungal endophytes and
arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF). Epichloë endophytes are a group of filamentous fungi …

Photosynthesis is essential for the growth of all green plants, and the presence of an
Epichloë endophyte enhances the photosynthesis of Achnatherum inebrians (drunken horse …

Endophytes generally increase antioxidant contents of plants subjected to environmental
stresses. However, the mechanisms by which endophytes alter the accumulation of …

The clavicipitaceous fungus Epichloë gansuensis forms symbiotic associations with drunken
horse grass (Achnatherum inebrians), providing biotic and abiotic stress protection to its …

Epichloë (Clavicipitaceae) is a genus of filamentous fungal endophytes that have co-
evolved with cool-season grasses with which they form perpetual, symbiotic associations. In …

Previous studies have confirmed that Bacillus and also Epichloë fungal endophytes can
promote seed germination of grasses and induce stress resistance. However, the effects of …
