| Abstract/Contents: | Profiles Acremonium endophytes, focusing on their potential ability to affect insect resistance. Presents background information on fungal endophytes, as well as insect resistance data in plants with fungal infections. States that "Acremonium endophytes are obligate seed-borne fungi that form inapparent infections in leaves, stems, and inflorescences of grasses," and discusses the endophytes' biology and taxonomy. Addresses allelochemical associations with resistance, explaining that "allelochemicals associated with resistance in Acremonium endophyte-infected grasses produce both antibiotic and antixenotic responses in their insect herbivores." Emphasizes the potential need to develop turfgrass and pasture grass cultivars with endophyte-enhanced resistance to insects, and concludes that "breeders are already taking steps to use and evaluate multiple endophytes from different locations, which will help ensure the durability of endophyte-enhanced resistance to insects." |
