Endophytic fungi, living in the inner tissues of living plants, have attracted increasing
attention among ecologists, taxonomists, chemists and agronomists. They are ubiquitously …

In natural ecosystems, endophytes, which live in the inner tissues of healthy plants, exhibit
complex interactions with their hosts. During a long coevolutionary process with their hosts …

Diaporthe (Phomopsis) species have often been reported as plant pathogens, non-
pathogenic endophytes or saprobes, commonly isolated from a wide range of hosts. The …

Sixty-five crude extracts from 51 selected endophytic fungi isolated from Garcinia species
were tested for various bioactivities. Eighty per cent of the fungal extracts from fermentation …

Coelomycete is a general term used for asexual fungi which produce conidia in fruiting
bodies: pycnidial, acervular, cupulate, pycnothyria or stromatic conidiomata. The group …

The diversity and beneficial characteristics of endophytic microorganisms have been studied
in several host plants. However, information regarding naturally occurring seed-associated …

Opuntia ficus-indica Mill.(forage cactus) is farmed with relative success in the semi-arid
region of the Brazilian northeast for commercial purposes, particularly as forage and food …

This paper reviews and determines the fungi growing on seeds and fruits of wild plants in
various habitats. Such fungi colonise a wide range of substrates with most reported from …

Bamboos, regarded as therapeutic agents in ethnomedicine, have been used to inhibit
inflammation and enhance natural immunity for a long time in Asia, and there are many …

The biodiversity–functional relationship in fungal ecology was recently developed and
debated, but has rarely been addressed in endophytes. In this study, an integrative culture …
