Phylogenetic diversity of endophyte assemblages associated with the tropical seagrass Enhalus acoroides in Thailand (2010, background): “2007), tropical trees and plants (Oses et al. 2008; Tao et al. 2008), lichens (Li et al.”
Do all trees carry the seeds of their own destruction? PCR reveals numerous wood decay fungi latently present in sapwood of a wide range of angiosperm trees (2010, methodology): “The method was more successful for Chilean trees, and light and electron microscopy revealed spores within undecayed wood (Oses et al. 2008), perhaps indicating greater abundance of latent propagules.”
Fungal endophytes: unique plant inhabitants with great promises (2011, background): “2011) as fungi are among the primary colonizers of dead plant tissues (Oses et al. 2008).”
Fungal diversity in wounded stems of Aquilaria malaccensis (2010, background): “Endophytes can be defined as any microorganisms that do not cause harm to plants and can be isolated from surface-sterilised plant parts or from the inner tissues of plants (Oses et al. 2008; Huang et al. 2009; Nimnoi and Pongsilp 2009).”
Can leaf degrading enzymes provide evidence that endophytic fungi becoming saprobes? (2010, background): “Therefore, the capability of endophytic fungi to produce enzymes to degrade cellulose and lignin is also a possible strategy that allows some endophytes to decay host tissue and persist as saprobes after host senescence (Lumyong et al. 2002; Ghimire and Hyde 2004; Oses et al. 2008).”
The endophytic mycota associated with Vitis vinifera in central Spain (2011, unknown): “Endophytes have been found in all plant species examined, being considered as ubiquitous in the plant kingdom (Hyde and Soytong 2008; Oses et al. 2008; Fröhlich et al. 2000; Sánchez et al. 2010; de Errasti et al. 2010; Tejesvi et al. 2010), and have even been found associated with lichens (Li et al.”
Fungal endophytes and bioprospecting (2009, background): “Endophytes have a cryptic existence and their main role in the ecosystem appears to be that of decomposers, as they are among the primary colonizers of dead plant tissues, probably by switching their life strategy from a mutualistic to a saprobic mode (Kumaresan & Suryanarayanan, 2002; Hyde & Soyton”
Fungal endophytes from higher plants: a prolific source of phytochemicals and other bioactive natural products (2010, background): “…effects (Bacon and White 2000; Hyde and Soytong 2008), are found in liverworts, hornworts, mosses, lycophytes, equisetopsids, ferns, and seed plants from the arctic tundra to the tropics (Strobel 2006b; Arnold 2007; Huang et al. 2008, 2009; Hyde and Soytong 2008; Oses et al. 2008; Raghukumar 2008).”
Diversity of fungal endophytes in leaves and stems of wild rubber trees (Hevea brasiliensis) in Peru (2010, result): “Low frequency of endophytes in inner sapwood has been reported in other studies (Tejesvi et al. 2005; Verma et al. 2007; Oses et al. 2008).”
