Endophytic fungi live within tissues of plant hosts without causing symptoms of disease. These fungi are broadly split into the taxonomically and ecologically cohesive Clavicipitaceous endophytes, which infect grasses, and the taxonomically diverse non-Clavicipitaceous endophytes, which are found in nearly all plants and have diverse ecological strategies. My dissertation has two sections: Section A investigates the intersection of Clavicipitaceous endophyte ecology with other ecological theory, including invasion ecology (Chapter II) and community ecology and climate change (Chapter III); Sec

A significant challenge of the 21st century is the growing health threat stemming from drug-resistant infectious diseases. There is an undeniable need to discover new, safe and effective drugs with novel mechanisms of action to combat this threat. A study of drugs currently on the market showed that natural products account for approximately 75% of new anti-infective drugs, either as new agents or analogs based upon their structure. Unfortunately, major pharmaceutical companies have cut back tremendously in natural products research in part due to the frustrating obstacle of frequent rediscove

Abstract:
Pinus radiata is the most planted tree in the southern hemisphere. The planted trees are especially susceptible to pathogens, but even the native population, nowadays limited tomerely five locations, are threatened by diseases caused by arthropods, fungi and dehydration. Endophytes are bacteria or fungi that reside inside healthy plant tissue, and often have a beneficial effect on their hosts. Endophytes can help plants adapt to abiotic stress such as drought and protect them against pathogens and insect pests. Given the roles that endophytes play in host stress responses, it is possible that

Endophytes are microorganisms which colonize the internal tissues of the plants without causing any harm. Generally, endophytes are described as presenting beneficial functions to the plant host, such as plant growth promoting activity and protection against pathogens. The interaction between endophytes and plants is so close, that the term holobiont has been proposed to define the plant and its microbiome, as if they formed a unique organism. In the last decades, endophytes have gained more attention since there is growing evidence of their capacity to influence the plant’s physiology and to

Abstract:
Dans cette étude, le palmier Astrocaryum sciophilum a été choisi comme modèle pour l'étude de ses endophytes foliaires. Du fait de sa longévité, nous avons cherché à mettre en évidence une communauté compétitive d’endophytes en fonction de l’âge de ses feuilles. Afin d’évaluer si les métabolites produits par ces endophytes pourraient être utilisés en santé humaine, les extraits de chaque endophyte ont été testés contre Staphylococcus aureus résistant à la méticilline (SARM) ainsi que pour leur activité quorum quenching (QQ). En parallèle, afin d’identifier un rôle écologique de protection de l

Pour la première fois, l’étude de la flore fongique endophytique de cinq plantes médicinales soudanaises : Calotropis procera (Ait.), Catharanthus roseus (L.), Euphorbia prostrata (Ait.), Trigonella foenum-graecum (L.), and Vernonia amygdalina (Del.) a été réalisée. Un total de 23 souches de champignons endophytes ont été isolées à partir des plantes après la stérilisation de surface puis les différentes analyses biologiques ont été effectuées. Les extraits bruts d’acétate d’éthyle de 21 endophytes ainsi que de leurs plantes hôtes ont été évalués pour leur teneur en phénols totaux et leur acti

Abstract:
Drug discovery from natural sources including plants, marine organisms and endophytes is still pivotal in pharmaceutical research due to their ability of producing diverse and unique secondary metabolites. Discovery of secondary metabolites from leaves of Vitex pinnata, a medicinal plant from Malaysia and its associated endophytic fungi, Lasiodiplodia theobromae, Nigrospora sp and Pestalotiopsis olivacea afforded nineteen compounds and several of these compounds exhibited good anticancer, antitrypanosomal and anti-mycobacterial activities. Secondary metabolites isolated from leaves of V. pinna

Abstract:
In this dissertation, I explore the diversity of endophytic fungi associated with above-ground tissues of neotropical ferns, assess factors shaping their community structure in three forests, and explore the contributions of endophytes and related strains to our understanding of the diversity and ecology of a representative genus of Ascomycota. In Appendix A, I report a survey of endophytic fungi from seven species of ferns at La Selva, Costa Rica. Using both species-level and phylogenetic analyses, I compare culturable endophytes as a function of fern taxonomy, frond tissues (blades vs. stalk
