Microdochium bolleyi (Ascomycota: Xylariales): Physiological characterization and structural features of its association with wheat

Plant roots can be colonized by asymptomatic fungal strains belonging to several taxa, among them, the group defined as Dark Septate Endophytes (DSE). Microdochium bolleyi commonly colonizes wheat roots and other crops. It is considered a weak pathogen or even a non-pathogenic fungal species, which...

This fungus also synthesized indoles in in vitro culture, but it cannot solubilize phosphorus. Only amylase activity was detected out of seven enzymatic activity measured. Microdochium bolleyi (strain 22-1) colonized the roots, it formed typical DSE fungal structures and behaved like a "true endophyte"; however further studies are necessary to elucidate its role in the association with wheat. © 2018 Sociedad Argentina de Botanica.
