摘要

Fungal endophytes, a diverse group of primarily ascomycetous fungi denned functionallyby their occurrence within asymptomatic photosynthetic tissues of plants, occur in all major lineages of land plants and in natural and anthropogenic communities ranging from thearctic to the tropics. Because of the tremendous diversity they encompass, ecological questions regarding the interactions of endophytes with the plants in which they live - and withother organisms that in turn interact with endophyte-plants symbiota - are difficalt toaddress. The goals of this review are to highlight progress, challenges, and frontiers inthe study of foliar endophyte diversity, with the ultimate goal of encouraging researchthat both bridges the gap between, and advances, research in alpha taxonomy and ecology.I focus on four themes that are reflected in the recent and rapidly expanding literature regarding endophyte biology: (1) the taxonomic and ecological distinctiveness of endophytesrelative to other nonpathogenic plant-associated fungi; (2) the insights that can be gainedfrom studies that consider genotypes as the relevant unit of biological organization, especially in the context of traditional species-level taxonomy and robust phylogeneticmethods that tie these genotypes and species together in an explicit evolutionary context;(3) the context-dependency of endophyte communities, highlighting the importance ofboth the identify of host plants and the geographic location in which plants occur; and(4) the complexity of the endophyte-pathogen-saprotroph continuum, and the challegesand exciting frontiers that lie in understanding the evolutionary relationships and ecological lability of fungi that exhibit these ecological modes. I argue that never before has thestudy of endophytic fungi been more exciting or more tractable, and that the potential forendophyte researchers to inform diverse areas of biology has never been greater.
