Chemically-Mediated Interactions Between Macroalgae, Their Fungal Endophytes, and Protistan Pathogens

Chemically-Mediated Interactions Between Macroalgae, Their Fungal Endophytes, and Protistan Pathogens

Filamentous fungi asymptomatically colonize the inner tissues of macroalgae, yet their ecological roles remain largely underexplored. Here, we tested if metabolites produced by fungal endophytes might protect their host against a phylogenetically broad spectrum of protistan pathogens. Accordingly, t...
