Orchids and their mycorrhizal fungi: an insufficiently explored relationship

TL;DR: A putative model representing the different molecular strategies that OM fungi might employ to establish this association with arbuscular mycorrhiza is proposed and targeted and untargeted metabolomics studies with special attention to each partner’s contribution are encouraged and some technical approaches are proposed.

Fungal Endophytes and Their Role in Agricultural Plant Protection against Pests and Pathogens

TL;DR: This review reports on the many benefits that fungal endophytes provide to agricultural plants against common non-insect pests such as fungi, bacteria, nematodes, viruses, and mites, and describes why this broad group of fungi is vitally important to current and future agricultural practices.

Molecular Identification of Endophytic Fungi and Their Pathogenicity Evaluation Against Dendrobium nobile and Dendrobium officinale.

TL;DR: The results of histological examination of infected tissues revealed that F. keratoplasticum and T. longibrachiatum fulfill Koch’s postulates for the existence of endophytes inside the living tissues and produced the least pathogenic effects against D. nobile protocorms.
