Dark septate endophyte Exophiala pisciphila promotes maize growth and alleviates cadmium toxicity

Dark septate endophytes (DSE) are typical root endophytes with the ability to enhance plant growth and tolerance to heavy metals, but the underlying mechanisms are unclear. Here, the physiological and molecular mechanisms of a DSE strain, Exophiala pisciphila, in mitigating cadmium (Cd, 20 mg/kg) to...
