Endophytic fungal diversity: review of traditional and molecular techniques (2012, methodology): “Fifty-nine of morphologically unidentifiable strains isolated from healthy stems and pods of Theobroma cacao trees were identified based on the sequence analyses of the 28S gene (Crozier et al. 2006).”
The endophytic mycota associated with Vitis vinifera in central Spain (2011, unknown): “…belonging to asexual ascomycetes, rather than wood decay basidiomycetes, although some 3 recent papers have suggested that basidiomycetes constitute an important component of certain endophytic communities (Rungjindamai et al. 2008; Pinruan et al. 2010; Duong et al. 2006; Crozier et al. 2006).”
Diversity of endophytic fungi of Taxus globosa (Mexican yew) (2011, background): “…been reported in limited number of studies (Sridhar and Raviraja 1995; Wang et al. 2005), with grasses (Sánchez Márquez et al. 2007, 2010), various liverworts (Duckett and Ligrone 2008), cocoa trees (Crozier et al. 2006; Thomas et al. 2008) and palms (Rungjindamai et al 2008; Pinruan et al. 2010).”
The endophytic mycobiota of the grass Dactylis glomerata (2007, methodology): “…ribosomal DNA and internal transcribed spacers (ITS) was applied to fungal taxonomy, improved taxonomic information has been accumulated from sterile isolates obtained in endophyte surveys (Guo et al., 2000; Wirsel et al., 2001; Promputtha et al., 2005; Crozier et al., 2006; Higgins et al., 2007).”
Endophytic fungi as biocontrol agents of Theobroma cacao pathogens (2008, background): “In T. cacao and Theobroma gileri at least two distinctive assemblages of endophytes can be found, one assemblage in leaves (Herre et al., 2005; Van Bael et al., 2005) and a second assemblage in trunks (Evans et al., 2003; Samuels unpublished; see also Crozier et al., 2006).”
Endophytic mycobiota of leaves and roots of the grass Holcus lanatus (2010, background): “However, basidiomycetes also seem to be normal components of the endophytic mycobiota of diverse plant species (Crozier et al. 2006; Rungjindamai et al. 2008).”
Fungal endophyte diversity and community patterns in healthy and yellowing leaves of Citrus limon (2013, result): “…of yellowing in C. limon leaves All examined lemon leaves were densely colonized and IF values characterizing the endophytic community profile were very similar to those obtained from some tropical plants (Fr€ohlich et al. 2000; Crozier et al. 2006; Thomas et al. 2008; Rakotoniriana et al. 2008).”
Diversity of fungal endophytes in leaves and stems of wild rubber trees (Hevea brasiliensis) in Peru (2010, background): “However, basidiomycetes also seem to be normal components of the endophytic mycota of diverse plant species, albeit in lower numbers (Crozier et al. 2006; Rungjindamai et al. 2008; Thomas et al. 2008).”
Biocontrol potential of Trichoderma martiale against the black-pod disease (Phytophthora palmivora) of cacao. (2009, background): “Since the cacao tree presents a complex endophytic (Arnold et al., 2003; Crozier et al., 2006 ) and epiphytic (Ten Hoopen et al., 2003) microbiota, lower initial amounts of the antagonist on the other hand are likely more susceptible to competition effects by other microorganisms.”
Persistent, symptomless, systemic, and seed-borne infection of lettuce by Botrytis cinerea (2009, background): “Many plants harbour rich endophytic floras (Crozier et al. , 2006; Faeth, 2002; Gange et al. , 2007; Rudgers et al. , 2004).”
Fungal endophyte diversity in coffee plants from Colombia, Hawai'i, Mexico and Puerto Rico (2010, background): “Fungal endophyte diversity in coffee plants 131 Although endophytic basidiomycetes are relatively rarely reported (Petrini 1986, Petrini et al. 1992), some have been recovered from temperate trees (e.g., Marasmius, Rhizoctonia, Rhodotorula; Petrini & Müller 1979; Widler & Müller 1984; Sieber-Canav”
