Fungal endophytes: unique plant inhabitants with great promises (2011, background): “Several studies demonstrated that endophytic fungi are capable of producing a number of important bioactive secondary metabolites, hitherto known only from plants, thereby raising the potential of using endophytes as alternative sources for these metabolites (Priti et al. 2009).”
Fungal endophytes from higher plants: a prolific source of phytochemicals and other bioactive natural products (2010, background): “Recently, several studies have led to the discovery of important plant secondary metabolites from endophytic fungi thus raising the prospect of using such organisms as alternative sources of these metabolites (Priti et al. 2009).”
Endophytic fungal communities in woody perennials of three tropical forest types of the Western Ghats, southern India (2011, background): “…Suryanarayanan et al. 2009a; Aly et al. 2010; Xu et al. 2010) are being currently recognized, but their interactions with their plant hosts and other organisms in the ecosystem have not been studied in detail (Higgins et al. 2006; Priti et al. 2009; Saunders and Kohn 2009; Van Bael et al. 2009).”
Hidden fungi, emergent properties: endophytes and microbiomes. (2011, background): “The number of patents that use endophytes for the production of secondary metabolites or with biologically important activities has increased dramatically in the past 20 years (Figure 7) (118).”
Chitinolytic enzymes from endophytic fungi (2011, background): “Their interaction with their respective host plants and their functions are not clearly understood (Priti et al. 2009; Albrectsen et al. 2010; Saikkonen et al. 2010).”
Foliar endophytic fungi from Hevea brasiliensis and their antagonism on Microcyclus ulei (2011, background): “Most of the previous work on endophytic fungi studied the species composition of the fungal population inside plant tissues and their distribution in different ecosystems but only rarely their interaction with host plants (Arnold et al. 2003; Hyde and Soytong 2008; Priti et al. 2009).”
