This reference work presents an authoritative review of endophytes
and their applications to human welfare. Endophytes have become a
class of interesting and curious microorganisms due to their
intimate intra- and intercellular association with plants for
competence, survival and reproduction. They can be bacteria or
fungi, and they are usually non-pathogenic to their host.
Endophytes have important applications in agriculture and industry,
namely, they can help with plant growth, act as biocontrol agents
and biosurfactant and secondary metabolite producers, and they are
also rich sources of bioactive natural products. Novel and
beneficial effects of endophytes are constantly emerging, and this
book, divided into four sections, provides readers with the latest
developments in this fast expanding field. In the first section,
readers will discover the biology of the major groups of
endophytes, followed by a summary of conventional and molecular
tools for endophytes' identification in Section II. The production
of high-value metabolites by endophytes will be explored in the
third section of this book, and in the final section, readers will
find several case studies, examples and prospects for endophytes'
application in agriculture and industry. Written by leading
international authors, this reference work will appeal to a wide
readership, from students and researchers in the field of botany,
biotechnology and agriculture to professionals interested in the
production and applications of endophytic metabolites.
