The plant endosphere is colonized by complex microbial communities and microorganisms,
which colonize the plant interior at least part of their lifetime and are termed endophytes …

Endophytic bacteria, which interact closely with their host, are an essential part of the plant
microbiome. These interactions enhance plant tolerance to environmental changes as well …

Bacterial endophytes live inside the plant tissues and known to play a crucial role in the
functioning of host plants through influencing their physiology and development. In present …

Endophytes are emerging as integral components of plant microbiomes. Some of them play
pivotal roles in plant development and plant responses to pathogens and abiotic stresses …

In the present study, a lead (Pb)‐resistant bacterium, Staphylococcus hominis strain AMB‐2
was isolated from Mandoli industrial area, Delhi and selected for heavy metal biosorption …

Abstract Citrus limon (L.) Burm. F. is an important evergreen fruit crop whose rhizosphere
and phyllosphere microbiota have been characterized, while seed microbiota is still …

Endophytes are bacterial or fungal organisms associated with plants in an obligate or
facultative manner. In order to maintain a stable symbiosis, many of the endophytes produce …

Endophytic microbiota plays a role not only in supplying plants with the basic nutrients
indispensable for their growth, but also helps them in the mechanisms of adaptation to …

The importance of microorganisms residing within the host plant for their growth and health
is increasingly acknowledged, yet the significance of microbes associated with seeds …

With growing interest in the role of endophyte to the host plant ecology, health, and
productivity, this chapter discusses seed-inhabiting endophytes. These endophytes were …
