Abstract To examine the effects of water stress and Cenangium ferruginosum (CF) on the fungal endophytic community of needles of Pinus koraiensis (PK), fungal endophytes isolated from the needles of 5-year-old PK seedlings were compared before and after exposure to water stress conditions and artificial inoculation with CF ascospores. Artificial CF inoculation was successfully confirmed using PCR with CF-specific primers (CfF and CfR). For comparison of the degree of water deficit in water…

Drought-induced susceptibility for Cenangium ferruginosum leads to progression of Cenangium-dieback disease in Pinus koraiensis

It is proposed that drought weakens pine immunity, which facilitates increased C. ferruginosum growth and results in conversion of the endophyte into the phytopathogen causing dieback.

The Impact of Pine Wood Nematode Infection on the Host Fungal Community

The results indicated that PWN infection primarily affected the fungal community and functional structures in the needles of P. thunbergii, but not the roots and soil.

DIVERSITY AND DISTRIBUTION OF FUNGAL ENDOPHYTES IN TWO AMAZONIAN HARDWOOD GENERA

This study resulted in a greater understanding of the diversity of endophytes, particularly Diaporthe spp.

The plasticity of fungal interactions

The goal of this review is to underline some ecological interactions involving fungi and other organisms and to indicate high fungal plasticity in terms of ontogenetic perspective.

Dothistroma septosporum Not Detected in Pinus sylvestris Seed Trees from Investigated Stands in Southern Poland

The study revealed that the seed trees from which the collected propagation material were free from the pathogen, and its endophytic behavior was not confirmed in testing, and these investigated trees of P. sylvestris should be suitable for seed collection and propagation, following the requirements of “good” phytosanitary quality as “pathogen-free” pine seeds used for reforestation.

Fungi in living symptomless needles of Pinus sylvestris with respect to some observed disease processes

The mycoflora in living symptomless needles of Pinus sylvestris was investigated in three 5–8 year-old plantations in Southern Poland from 1987 to 1990 and there were considerable differences in this respect among plantations investigated.

Comparison of Cenangium Dieback Fungus Isolated from Three Different Species of Pine

There were no significant differences in the morphological characteristics of conidia and ascospores produced by the three isolates, however, cultural differences were observed among the isolates.

Ecological studies of soil organisms with references to the decomposition of pine needles

The structural toughness of needles is considered to be the prominent factor in determining the feeding value of the needles, and removals of ether- and water-soluble fractions in all kinds of needles reduced drastically both consumption and assimilation.

Seasonal and needle age-dependent changes of the endophytic mycobiota in Pinus thunbergii and Pinus densiflora needles

The endophytic mycobiota of these pine needles were dominated by four taxa: the Leptostroma anamorph of the Lophodermium pinastri complex, Phialocephala sp., Cenangium ferruginosum Fr.:Fr.

Fungal Epiphytes and Endophytes of Coffee Leaves (Coffea arabica)

This first quantitative comparison of epiphytic and endophytic fungal floras in any plant is compared, and significant correlations between occurrence of fungal morphospecies suggested that fungi may have positive or negative effects on their neighbors.

Fungal Endophytes in Stems and Leaves: From Latent Pathogen to Mutualistic Symbiont

It is surmised that endophytes may be as common among plants as are mycorrhyzae, and inducible mutualists grow rapidly and produce toxins against herbivores when damaged host tissues provide new sites for infection.

Endophytic fungi associated with healthy pine needles and needles infested by the pine needle gall midge, Thecodiplosis japonensis

Endophytes of healthy and galled pine needles were divided into two groups: position-specific fungi, which showed intrinsically restricted distributions on needles; and gall-specific mushrooms, which might represent different ecological groups of endophytes.

Molecular Identification of Endophytic Fungi Isolated from Needle Leaves of Conifers in Bohyeon Mountain, Korea

This study was conducted to identify endophytic fungi isolated from leaves of coniferous trees in Bohyeon Mountain of Korea and found the most frequently isolated species were L. conigenum and S. pini-thunbergii.
