Beneficial fungal endophytes

Beneficial fungal endophytes are microorganisms that live within plant tissues without causing disease, forming intimate and often long-lasting associations with their hosts.

Plant-Microbe Symbioses: ecology and function

Plant symbioses with soil microorganisms, particularly arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi and nitrogen-fixing rhizobia, are among the most widespread and ecologically significant mutualistic interactions in terrestrial ecosystems.

Plant microbiome

Plant-associated microorganisms exhibit diverse lifestyles, ranging from pathogenic to mutualistic and commensal interactions.
