Epichloë bromicola from wild barley improves salt-tolerance of cultivated barley by altering physiological responses to salt stress

IntroductionEpichloë bromicola is a cultivable fungal endophyte that lives in symbiosis with wild barley (Hordeum brevisubulatum) to which it confers salt tolerance. This study tested the hypothesis that E. bromicola derived from wild barley has the potential to increase salt tolerance in cultivated...
