Abstract

Endophytic fungi (EFs) form intimate associations with plants, residing within their tissues without causing apparent harm. Understanding the evolution of endophytic fungal genomes is essential for uncovering the mechanisms that drive their symbiotic relationships with host plants. This review explores the dynamic interactions between EFs and host plants, focusing on the evolutionary processes that shape their genomes. We highlighted key genomic adaptations promoting their endophytic lifestyle, including genes involved in plant cell wall degradation, secondary metabolite production, and stress tolerance. By combining genomic data with ecological and physiological information, this review provides a comprehensive understanding of the coevolutionary dynamics between EFs and host plants. Moreover, it provides insights that help elucidate the complex interdependencies governing their symbiotic interactions.

基因组学如何帮助解开内生真菌的进化。

内生真菌（EFs）与植物形成密切的联系，居住在植物的组织中而不造成明显的伤害。了解内生真菌基因组的进化对于揭示其与寄主植物共生关系的机制至关重要。这篇综述探讨了EFs与寄主植物之间的动态相互作用，重点是形成其基因组的进化过程。我们强调了促进植物内生生活方式的关键基因组适应，包括涉及植物细胞壁降解、次生代谢物产生和胁迫耐受性的基因。本文将基因组数据与生态和生理信息相结合，全面了解寄主植物与寄主植物之间的协同进化动态。此外，它还提供了有助于阐明控制它们共生相互作用的复杂相互依赖关系的见解。

期刊介绍： World Journal of Microbiology and Biotechnology publishes research papers and review articles on all aspects of Microbiology and Microbial Biotechnology. Since its foundation, the Journal has provided a forum for research work directed toward finding microbiological and biotechnological solutions to global problems. As many of these problems, including crop productivity, public health and waste management, have major impacts in the developing world, the Journal especially reports on advances for and from developing regions. Some topics are not within the scope of the Journal. Please do not submit your manuscript if it falls into one of the following categories: · Virology · Simple isolation of microbes from local sources · Simple descriptions of an environment or reports on a procedure · Veterinary, agricultural and clinical topics in which the main focus is not on a microorganism · Data reporting on host response to microbes · Optimization of a procedure · Description of the biological effects of not fully identified compounds or undefined extracts of natural origin · Data on not fully purified enzymes or procedures in which they are applied All articles published in the Journal are independently refereed.
