- Summary:
- This book describes the diversity and functional roles of fungal endophytes. It explains their beneficial impacts along with the practical applications in crop production. The endophytes are an important possibility for research on future medications and biopesticides in view of the production of secondary metabolites. In the context of agriculture, the book chapters delve into the biostimulant properties of endophytic fungi, offering sustainable solutions for crop production. This extends to their relationships with medicinal plants, paving the way for potential breakthroughs in medicine and agriculture alike. The book encompasses the adaptability and potential of endophytic fungi, emphasizing their future role as biostimulants for the viable bioprospecting of high-value secondary metabolites. Molecular mechanisms governing future host-endophyte interactions is discussed to provide a deeper understanding of signaling pathways. This book is an important asset for future students, researchers in plant science, and professionals across diverse industries, fostering a nuanced comprehension of fungal endophytes and their multifaceted roles in the pursuit of future metabolic sustainability.
