A symposium on endophytes and their applications in agriculture was held recently. The subject of the symposium is of immediate relevance to crop production considering the emerging fact that the performance of plants and their response to abiotic and biotic stresses are controlled not only by the plant genome but also by its microbiome, which includes the endophytes. To the best of our knowledge, a symposium exclusively devoted to the application of endophytes in agriculture has not been organized in the country till now.

Abstract

The subject of the symposium is of immediate relevance to crop production considering the emerging fact that the performance of plants and their response to abiotic and biotic stresses are controlled not only by the plant genome but also by its microbiome, which includes the endophytes. To the best of our knowledge, a symposium exclusively devoted to the application of endophytes in agriculture has not been organized in the country till now.
