Abstract Plant pathogens can cause significant losses in plant production. To address this issue, it is crucial to develop innovative technologies that promote sustainability One potential solution the use of growth‐promoting microorganisms, particularly those with biocontrol properties. In study, root‐endophytic actinomycetes isolated from Bromus auleticus , a South American forage grass, were investigated. Their ability growth and their activity against fungal phytopathogens analysed. The...
The fungi of genus Neotyphodium are systemic, constitutive, symbionts grasses subfamily Pooideae. In the southern hemisphere most these asexual endophytes result hybridization between two sexual species, Epichloë festucae and E. typhina, from northern hemisphere. However ancestral species have not been detected in this region. Several Argentina infected by species. These general very similar macro-and micromorphologically phylogenetically conform to N. tembladerae. spp. some hosts, Bromus...
Abstract Background Soil is among the most diverse and complex environments in world. microorganisms play an essential role biogeochemical cycles affect plant growth crop production. However, our knowledge of relationship between species-assemblies soil ecosystem processes still very limited. The aim this study was to generate a comprehensive metagenomic survey evaluate effect high-input agricultural practices on microbial communities. Results We collected samples from three different areas...
In this work we performed morphological and molecular phylogenetic analyses (based on sequences of calmodulin M [calM], translation-elongation factor 1-α [tefA] β-tubulin [tubB] genes) to characterize the diversity Epichloë endophytes in Bromus setifolius Phleum alpinum. The phylogenies obtained from three genes were congruent allowed differentiation lineages that also presented differences. One lineage corresponds previously described species tembladerae, which is present a wide range...
Abstract Asexual, vertically transmitted fungal endophytes of the genus Neotyphodium are considered to enhance growth, stress resistance and competitiveness agronomic grasses, but have been suggested neutral or deleterious effects on wild grasses. We studied whether associations between Bromus auleticus their endophytes, pampeanum tembladerae , beneficial for this forage grass native South America. In a greenhouse experiment, 3‐month‐old endophyte‐infected plants (E+) showed enhanced growth...
A study was performed on a collection of 84 isolates from decaying plant tissues and soils in Argentina previously identified as Trichoderma harzianum. Based multiple phenotypic characters multilocus phylogenetic analyses, 10 species were distinguished, three which are described new species: T. austroindianum, hortense, syagri. Among the remaining seven species, following five can be added to Argentine mycobiota: afarasin, afroharzianum, endophyticum, guizhouense, neotropicale. afroharzianum...
Abstract Crucial to our understanding of plant ecology is the consideration eco‐physiological responses and constraints plant–fungal symbioses throughout native distribution range their host. We examined key roles two co‐occurring fungal symbionts [ Epichloë endophytes arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF)] in endemic grass Hordeum comosum across a wide bioclimatic gradient contrasting grazing severity. sampled H. plants along four humid‐to‐arid transects Patagonia, Argentina, covering its...
