ABSTRACT:
The invention provides an isolated culture of aNeotyphodiumendophyte of anElymus canadensishost plant, wherein the endophyte reproduces asexually and enhances the agronomic characteristics of the host plant. Methods for inoculating the host plant with the endophyte, for propagating the host-endophyte combination, and for detecting the presence of the endophyte and of its metabolites within a host plant are also described.
