Summary
  1. "This reference examines intercellular infections in certain plant species that lead to a symbiotic relationship between the host and its endophytic microbes. The book demonstrates the remarkable ability of many types of endosymbionts, acting as a unit with hosts, to better survive, compete, and reproduce - illustrating a number of practical applications of endophytes, such as pharmaceutical development and agricultural management."--BOOK JACKET.
