This book examines intercellular infections in certain plant species that lead to a symbiotic
relationship between the host and its endophytic microbes. It demonstrates the remarkable
ability of many types of endosymbionts, acting as a unit with hosts to better survive, compete,
and reproduce. It also illustrates a number of practical applications of endophytes, such as
pharmaceutical development and agricultural management.
Contents
