摘要

Endophytes play a pivotal role in promoting plant growth by utilizing various mechanisms, such as phytohormone production, nitrogen fixation, phosphorus solubilization, and mobilization of essential nutrients. These symbiotic organisms also produce secondary metabolites, including antibiotics, siderophores, and lytic enzymes, which inhibit pathogenic microorganisms and offer eco-friendly biological alternatives to hazardous chemical pesticides. Moreover, endophytes can trigger resistance in plants fortify them against pathogens. Recent advances in omics technologies have deepened our understanding of endophyte-plant-pathogen interactions , uncovering the molecular mechanisms that drive beneficial effects on the host plant . Harnessing plant endophytes offers sustainable strategies for improving productivity, enhancing stress tolerance, and reducing reliance on agrochemicals, thereby contributing to more resilient and sustainable agricultural and forestry practices.
