Abstract:Endophytic fungi are known to improve plant tolerance under stressful conditions including salt stress. Considering this, the endophytic fungi, Alternaria chlamydospora, Embellisia phragmospora, Phomabetae, Chaetomium coarctatum, Fusarium equiseti and Fusarium graminearum, was isolated from roots of plants growing in salt environments and then, evaluated for their contribution in conferring salt stress tolerance in barley plants. The influence of inoculation with endophytic fungi, on germination, root and s… Show more
