Sensors (Basel)
. 2025 Feb;
25(4).
PMID: 40006495
Perennial ryegrass is an important temperate grass used for forage and turf worldwide. It forms symbiotic relationships with endophytic fungi (endophytes), conferring pasture persistence and resistance to herbivory. Endophyte performance...

Microorganisms
. 2021 Jun;
9(5).
PMID: 34064362
Asexual fungi are strictly seed-transmitted endophytic symbionts of cool-season grasses and spend their entire life cycle within the host plant. Endophyte infection can confer protective benefits to its host through...

Microorganisms
. 2020 Jul;
8(6).
PMID: 32599897
Asexual spp. fungal endophytes have been extensively studied for their functional secondary metabolite production. Historically, research mostly focused on understanding toxicity of endophyte-derived compounds on grazing livestock. However, endophyte-derived compounds...

Microorganisms
. 2020 Jan;
8(1).
PMID: 31892173
Methods for the identification and localisation of endophytic fungi are required to study the establishment, development, and progression of host-symbiont interactions, as visible reactions or disease symptoms are generally absent...

. 2019 Nov;
7(11).
PMID: 31766147
Epoxy-janthitrems are a class of indole diterpenes with structural similarity to lolitrem B. Two taxa of asexual endophytes have been reported to produce epoxy-janthitrems, TG-3 ( Taxonomic Group 3; e.g.,...

Mol Genet Genomics
. 2018 Nov;
294(2):315-328.
PMID: 30443676
Development of grass-endophyte associations with minimal or no detrimental effects in combination with beneficial characteristics is important for pastoral agriculture. The feasibility of enhancing production of an endophyte-derived beneficial alkaloid...

Sci Rep
. 2017 Aug;
7(1):9024.
PMID: 28831055
Molecular characterisation has convincingly demonstrated some types of horizontal gene transfer in eukaryotes, but nuclear gene transfer between distantly related eukaryotic groups appears to have been rare. For angiosperms (flowering...
