Plants associate with communities of microbes (bacteria and fungi) that play critical roles in
plant development, nutrient acquisition and oxidative stress tolerance. The major share of …

Background Scientific approaches into modern agricultural systems, as opposed to the use
of synthetic pesticides in food production, became important by exploring endophytic fungi …

Plant microbiomes are essential to host health and productivity but the ecological processes
that govern crop microbiome assembly are not fully known. Here we examined bacterial …

Background The plant microbiome is an integral part of the host and increasingly recognized
as playing fundamental roles in plant growth and health. Increasing evidence indicates that …

Plants harbour highly diverse mycobiomes which sustain essential functions for host health
and productivity. However, ecological processes that govern the plant–mycobiome …

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 …

The interiors of plants are colonized by diverse microorganisms that are referred to as
endophytes. Endophytes have received much attention over the past few decades, yet many …

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

Resistance in micro-organisms against antimicrobial compounds is an emerging
phenomenon in the modern era as compared to the traditional world which brings new …

Microorganisms play an important role in plant growth and development. In particular,
endophytic fungi is one of the important kinds of microorganisms and has a mutually …
