ABSTRACT:
A first plant species or a part thereof may be produced which has stably and heritably integrated therein one or more endophytic fungi which are derived from a second, different plant species. This first plant species is not a host plant for the endophytic fungi in nature. These resultant first plant species containing the endophytic fungi exhibit substantially increased vigor, altered morphology and chemistry, and increased reproductive potential compared to non-treated controls.
