Acremonium fescue Festuca retinoblastoma			27 QK604 It was in 1988 that Keith Clay proposed defensive mutualism to explain the widespread distribution of endophytic fungi in grasses, and here scientists from many fields and many countries describe the current findings and ongoing research 20 years later into defensive mutualisms in several kingdoms of organisms and the phenomenon of microbial-based defensive mutualism. Defensive mutualism in microbial symbiosis by SciTech Book News Further tests revealed the endophytic bacteria also grow in the cactus fruit and from there are transferred into seeds, and that these bacteria can weather rock, dissolving particles into smaller sizes. Cacti can become 'rock busters' through symbiotic relationship with ... by Asian News International Mushrooms are divided into four basic categories: saprophytic, parasitic, mycorrhizal, and endophytic.
