Effect of <em>Epichloë</em> Endophyte on the Growth and Carbon Allocation of Its Host Plant <em>Stipa purpurea</em> under Hemiparasitic Root Stress

Effect of <em>Epichloë</em> Endophyte on the Growth and Carbon Allocation of Its Host Plant <em>Stipa purpurea</em> under Hemiparasitic Root Stress

<i>Epichloë</i> endophytes not only affect the growth and resistance of their host plants but also confer nutrient benefits to parasitized hosts. In this study, we used <i>Pedicularis kansuensis</i> to parasitize <i>Stipa purpurea</i>, both with and without endoph...
