Defensive mutualism between plants and endophytic fungi? (2010, unknown): “Tree endophytes – rarely defensive mutualists In contrast to the hypothesis of defensive mutualism, metaanalysis failed to reveal significant endophyte effects on plant resistance in terms of any tree or herbivore variables (Table 2).”
The interactive effects of plant microbial symbionts: a review and meta-analysis (2010, background): “As species of fungal endophytes of grasses vary between beneficial and antagonistic interactions with their host plants (Ahlholm et al. 2002; Cheplick 2007), we tested whether the direction of the interactive effect varied with the nature of the main endophyte effect.”
Asexual Neotyphodium endophytes in a native grass reduce competitive abilities (2004, background): “Similarly, in non-competitive experiments, E) Festuca pratensis, a native grass, performed better than E+ plants in low nutrient conditions (Ahlholm et al. 2002).”
