• Muscodor sutura, a novel endophytic fungus with volatile antibiotic activities (2012, background): “Interestingly, because of the ecological niche of endophytes, they have to be metabolically active to counter the defense mechanisms of the plant and they must be able to be competitive with other microbes (Zhang et al. 2006).”
• Endophytic fungi for producing bioactive compounds originally from their host plants (2010, background): “This could have led to certain endophytes own the ability to biosynthesize some ״phytochemicals״ originated from their host plants [2, 8].”
• Fungal endophytes from higher plants: a prolific source of phytochemicals and other bioactive natural products (2010, background): “This overview is intended to be a continuation of previous reviews covering this field (Tan and Zou 2001; Strobel and Daisy 2003; Strobel et al. 2004; Gunatilaka 2006; Zhang et al. 2006; Verma et al. 2009).”
• Endophytes vs tree pathogens and pests: can they be used as biological control agents to improve tree health? (2019, background): “Endophytes may grow inter– and intra– cellularly as well as endo– and epi– phytically (Schulz and Boyle 2005; Zhang et al. 2006).”
• Endophytic fungi harbored in Cannabis sativa L.: diversity and potential as biocontrol agents against host plant-specific phytopathogens (2013, background): “…against invading pathogens (Aly et al. 2010; Arnold et al. 2003; Debbab et al. 2012; Gunatilaka 2006; Kharwar et al. 2011; Porras-Alfaro and Bayman 2011; Rodriguez et al. 2004, 2008; Staniek et al. 2008; Strobel and Daisy 2003; Strobel et al. 2004; Suryanarayanana et al. 2009; Zhang et al. 2006).”
• Fungal endophytes: unique plant inhabitants with great promises (2011, background): “A further role of endophytes in the ecosystem may be to initiate the biological degradation of a dead or dying host plant which starts the crucial processes of nutrient recycling ( Zhang et al. 2006; Parfitt et al. 2010; Vega et al. 2010; Boberg et al. 2011; Sun et al. 2011) as fungi are among the ”
• SCREENING OF ANTIMICROBIAL AND ANTIOXIDANT SECONDARY METABOLITES FROM ENDOPHYTIC FUNGI ISOLATED FROM WHEAT (TRITICUM DURUM) (2013, background): “These bioactive compounds could be classified as alkaloids, terpenoids, steroids, quinones, lignans, phenols, and lactones (Zhang et al. 2006; Xu et al. 2008).”
• Endophytic Fungi: Natural Products, Enzymes and Biotransformation Reactions (2009, background): “Recently, two Chinese groups reported preliminary evidence that vincristine might be produced by Fusarium oxysporum [16] and Mycelia sterilia [54], endophytic fungi found in the vincristine producer plant.”
• Metabolomics of Endophytic Fungi Producing Associated Plant Secondary Metabolites: Progress, Challenges and Opportunities (2012, background): “On the other hand, many discoveries have been made in isolating endophytic fungi, which have been shown to have the potential for de novo synthesis of various bioactive metabolites that may directly or indirectly be used as therapeutic agents against numerous ailments (Strobel and Daisy, 2003; Strob”
• Understanding the diversity of foliar endophytic fungi: progress, challenges, and frontiers (2007, neutral): “…their sensitivity to environmental perturbations (Helander et al. 1993; Lappalainen et al. 1999), their biochemical diversity (Strobel & Daisy 2003; Gunatilaka 2006; Zhang et al. 2006), and the previously overlooked ways in which they influence the ecological phenotypes of the plants they inhabit.”
• The Hidden World within Plants: Ecological and Evolutionary Considerations for Defining Functioning of Microbial Endophytes (2015, background): “Besides the production of secondary metabolite compounds, endophytes are also able to influence the secondary metabolism of their plant host (182).”
• Bioactivity and genetic diversity of endophytic fungi in Rhododendron tomentosum Harmaja (2011, background): “fungi as potential producers of novel, biologically active products (Schulz et al. 2002; Strobel and Daisy 2003; Tomita 2003; Zhang et al. 2006 ), and they are widely stated to provide an abundant source of new natural products for exploitation in a wide variety of medical, agricultural and industr”
