Global population growth poses a threat to food security in an era of increased ecosystem
degradation, climate change, soil erosion, and biodiversity loss. In this context, harnessing …

Abstract Knowledge of the relationships and thus the classification of fungi, has developed
rapidly with increasingly widespread use of molecular techniques, over the past 10–15 …

Current rates of population growth require the development of new agricultural strategies to
feed the world human and livestock. The massive use of agricultural chemicals causes …

Endophytic fungi are symptomless internal inhabits of plant tissues. They are implicated in
the production of antibiotic and other compounds of therapeutic importance. Ecologically …

Endophytes are microbial symbionts living inside plants and have been extensively
researched in recent decades for their functions associated with plant responses to …

Root microbiota is a crucial determinant of plant productivity and stress tolerance. Here, we
hypothesize that the superior halo-tolerance of seepweed Suaeda salsa is tightly linked to a …

Dark septate endophytes (DSE) exert a plethora of effects in regulating plant growth,
signalling and stress tolerance. The advent of metagenomics has led to the identification of …

Endophytic fungi ubiquitously dwell inside the tissue-spaces of plants, mostly
asymptomatically. They grow either intercellularly or intracellularly in a particular host plant …

Endophytic fungi have been studied in recent decades to understand how they interact with
their hosts, the types of relationships they establish, and the potential effects of this …

Agricultural productivity suffers a heavy loss due to plant pathogens, insect pests and
various abiotic stresses. Agriculture being the world's largest economic sector, it is the need …
