Secondary metabolites produced by the ascomycetes have attracted wide attention from
researchers. Their diverse chemical structures and rich biological activities are essential in …

Abstract Tea (Camellia sinensis (L) O. Kuntze) is a long‐duration monoculture crop prone to
several biotic (fungal diseases and insect pest) and abiotic (nutrient deficiency, drought and …

Plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) are studied in different agricultural crops but
the interaction of PGPR of tea crop is not yet studied well. In the present study, the …

Plant associated endophytic actinobacteria may contribute to plant growth and defense by
direct or indirect methods. Our aim was to evaluate the plant growth promoting and …

Nigrospora is a monophyletic genus belonging to Apiosporaceae. Species in this genus are
phytopathogenic, endophytic, and saprobic on different hosts. In this study, leaf specimens …

The plant microbiome is known to be influenced by certain biotic as well as abiotic factors.
Nevertheless, the drivers for specific changes in microbial community composition and …

Endophytic actinobacteria aid in plant development and disease resistance by boosting
nutrient uptake or producing secondary metabolites. For the first time, we investigated the …

Rosa roxburghii Tratt. is widely applied in food, cosmetics, and traditional medicine, and has
been demonstrated to possess diverse bioactivities. Plant endophytic fungi are important …

Diseases in plants are mostly caused by fungi. Fungal interactions with the host can be
either biotrophic, necrotrophic or hemibiotrophic. Synergistic polymicrobial interactions have …

Abstract Nigrospora (Xylariales, Apiosporaceae) consists of species of terrestrial plant
endophytes and pathogens. Nigrospora has also been reported in marine environments …
