Beneficial bacterial endophytes are capable of promoting growth and alleviating abiotic and biotic stress in plants. This dissertation will present research that was undertaken to test the overarching hypothesis that non-cultivated relatives of crops in stressed environments possess beneficial bacteria capable of promoting growth and alleviating stress in cultivated plants. This hypothesis will be tested using cotton as a model and will seek bacteria in non-cultivated relatives in the Malvaceae family. Cultivated cotton provides a useful model for these studies because cotton seeds are acid delinted. Acid delinting is a century-old process that involves treating seeds with diluted sulfuric or hydrochloric acid to remove fuzzy lint covering seeds which facilitates cotton seed mass production and reduces the prevalence of seed-borne diseases. This practice likely disturbs the seed-transmitted cotton microbiome and thus, also affects the communities of beneficial microbes that are vertically transmitted to developing cotton seedlings. The research in this dissertation tested whether bacteria from non-cultivated, wild plants in the Malvaceae family in saline and arid areas in Puerto Rico promoted growth, alleviated salt stress, and protected cotton seedlings against seed-borne fungal diseases. Bacteria were isolated that enhanced cotton seed germination and altered the growth of various fungi. Among the bacteria isolated, Bacillus amyloliquefaciens was further demonstrated to promote growth, alleviate salt stress, and alter root architecture of cotton and okra seedlings. Using a GeneChip microarray gene expression analysis, it was demonstrated that inoculating cotton seedling roots with B. amyloliquefaciens led to the differential expression of hundreds of genes in both non-stressed and salt stressed conditions. Many of the differentially expressed genes could contribute to the phenotypic effects observed on inoculated cotton seedlings. Moreover, B. amyloliquefaciens inhibited growth of numerous fungi and produced lipopeptides with antifungal and chlamydospore-inducing properties. Data supported that B. amyloliquefaciens promoted growth and alleviated biotic and abiotic stress of multiple hosts making it a suitable candidate to be used as a biofertilizer and biocontrol agent. Biological agents that enhance plant growth and health have the potential to decrease the demand for nitrogenous fertilizers and fungicides which are costly and detrimental to the environment.

Microorganisms seem to occupy virtually every living and nonliving place on earth (Amna et al., 2006). The remnant records indicate that plants also have been associated with microorganisms, residing within the tissues of host plant (Krings et al., 2007). Microbes that inhabit plant tissues at some stages in their life cycle without causing apparent harm to their host are called Endophytes . These microorganisms have been proven to mimic their host plant in production of bioactive molecules which can be of immense pharmaceutical use. A huge number of anticancer drugs (like Taxol, Podophyllotoxin, Camptothecin), antimicrobials, immunomodulators (Cytogenin, Cytoblastinm and Conagenin) and many other medicinally useful molecules have been isolated from these residents of plants. From the increasing reports pertaining to the isolation of biomolecules from endophytes it can be concluded that these microbes can be a suitable alternate for the plant species which are on verge of extinction and can help in conservation of such endangered plant species. Gloriosa superba L. is a perennial climber and is used as an ayurvedic medicinal herb to cure diseases in various parts of Africa and Southeast Asia. The plant was under threatened category due to its imprudent harvesting from wild as it is extensively used by medicinal industries for its colchicine content. It also faces a low seed set problem, but due to its industrial demand it is now under cultivation (Jana and Shekhawat, 2011). The medicinal importance of Gloriosa superba is due to the presence of alkaloids (mainly Colchicine) in all parts of the plant. Several Colchicine-related alkaloids have been isolated from tubers and seeds. The alkaloids from plants (Colchicine and Gloriosine) are used in treatment of gout (The wealth of India, 1956) and rheumatism (Nadkarni KM, 1996). Colchicine is used in the treatment of cancer (Chopra et. al., 1956). This glorious herb was found in abundance in Patalkot valley in the southern central part of Madhya Pradesh (India).

▼ Fungal endophytes grow symbiotically inside plants, where some strains promote plant growth and survival under particular abiotic stresses. Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum Var. Rutgers) seeds were inoculated with systemic (also called class 2) fungal endophytes (Alternaria spp and Trichoderma harzianum). These endophytes were isolated from plants naturally growing in salinized-soil in Saskatchewan, e.g. Little Manitou Lake shore, Radisson Lake shore, and Mosaic Belle Plaine tailings area. The effects of colonization with systemic fungal endophytes were studied on growth performance of tomato plants under NaCl and drought stress. Endophyte-colonized plants had greater fresh shoot biomass than control plants after 20 d of NaCl stress (300 and 500 mM). They also maintained greater fresh root biomass after 10 d NaCl stress (300 mM). After exposure to chronic 100 mM and 200 mM NaCl stress, there was no remarkable difference in plant biomass (both root and shoot) between endophyte-colonized plants and non-colonized control plants. Exposure to NaCl stress altered different aspects of the plants’ physiology such as photosynthetic efficiency, osmolyte adjustment, and reactive oxygen species generation. Photosynthetic efficiency was improved by endophyte colonization during chronic NaCl stress, but decreased significantly during ≥400 mM NaCl stress. Although osmolality of plants increased with the increase of NaCl salinity, there was no effect of endophyte colonization on plant osmolality. On the other hand, reactive oxygen species activity of endophyte-colonized plants was always lower in comparison to non-colonized control plants in response to NaCl stress. Endophyte-colonized plants growth performance and physiological responses were also determined under drought. Endophyte-colonized plants had significantly higher shoot biomass in comparison to non-colonized control plants after intermittent drought and continuous drought. Physiological responses of plants differed following intermittent and continuous drought stress. Photosynthetic efficiency of endophyte-colonized plants improved significantly after intermittent drought, but there was no effect of endophyte colonization on photosynthetic efficiency of plants after continuous drought. On the other hand, increased proline accumulation and decreased osmolyte concentration were observed in endophyte-colonized plants in response to drought stress. There was also indication of less reactive oxygen species in endophyte-colonized plants upon drought stress. Finally, better fluid use efficiency of endophyte-colonized plants was observed, which is correlated to drought tolerance in endophyte-colonized plants. These results suggest that our systemic fungal endophytes have the potential to improve agriculture and horticulture on salinized and dry soils which are common phenomenon in semi-arid environments.

▼ Algae are increasingly being used in human affairs. Alongside with higher volumes, threats for seaweed natural reservoirs and seaweed farming are starting to appear. Epidemics seems a key complication, similar to agriculture and animal aquaculture. However, phycopathologies are much more under documented, and future diseases are currently difficult to foresee. Thus, efforts should be stressed on biodiversity of algal pathogens and algal defense strategies against diseases. This thesis is divided in two parts: the first section comprises Chapters Two and Three, which describe novel algal pathosystems from cell biology and molecular phylogeny perspectives. Chapter Two characterizes the obligate parasite Maullinia braseltonii sp. nov., a phytomyxid infecting Durvillaea (bull kelp) in the Southern hemisphere. Chapter Three reports new records, cell plasticity and epidemiology of the endophyte Laminariocolax aecidioides infecting Lessonia berteroana (huiro negro) in northern Chile. The two hosts aforementioned have commercial importance, and remarkable roles in coastal ecology in temperate marine habitats in the Southern hemisphere. Chapters Four, Five and Six correspond to a second section and describe cellular processes in novel brown algal pathosystems, related with infection and immunity responses. In Chapter Four, using the Macrocystis/Anisolpidium as a model, microscopy evidence indicate that autophagy is a key cellular process used either to help starving pathogen syncytia to survive (controlled) or to kill themselves (abortive), probably induced by the host. Likewise, host autophagy was also widely observed and may be involved in the neutralization of early-stage oomycetes or nutrient recycling to mount defences. Chapter Five shows the results on a screening of ca. 40 strains from different brown algal orders, to phenotype cellular defense markers against two phylogenetic distant pathogens (Anisolpidium ectocarpii and Maullinia ectocarpii). Overall, responses such as cell wall re-arrangements, programmed cell death, autophagy and ROS accumulation were confirmed to be at least partially conserved across different Phaeophycean lineages. Chapter 6 reports a boost on the phlorotannin metabolism in the model brown alga Ectocarpus (e.g. physode formation and polyketide synthase gene expression) after pathogen challenging, suggesting a similar protective role of this molecule as against grazers and deleterious light regimes. Phlorotannins role however needs to be elucidated.

▼ A busca por novos metabólitos secundários de interesse biotecnológicos tem aumentoado nos últimos anos. O objetivo foi isolar micro-organismos endofíticos e da rizosfera, avaliar o potencial biotecnológico dos micro-organismos endofíticos e da rizosfera de Ipomoea pes-caprae. Os endófitos isolados foram inoculados em meio específico para bactérias, actinobactérias (ALA, Meio Completo, ISP2) e fungos (BDA e Agar Sabouraud) à temperatura de 30°C. Para o isolamento das actinobactérias da rizosfera foi utilizado 10 g da amostra do solo rizosférico e este foi misturado a 90 mL de NaCl a 0,9%(m/v) a pH (5,6). Estes micro-organismos foram cultivados em meios de cultura ISP2 e Czapeck Dox a 30 ºC por 7 dias. Foi realizada atividade antimicrobiana de todos os micro-oranismos isolados tanto endofítico como rizosféricos. Para a enzima L- asparaginase foi realizada análise qualitativa e cinética através de Fermentação Semi-Sólida com farinha de soja como substrato. Além da análise qualitativa da L-asparaginase foi verificada a presença de hidrolase (amilase, protease, celulase e lipase. A análise química do extrato metanólico do endófito Streptomyces sp, fungos e actinobactéria rizosférica Nocardia sp foi realizada utilizando a cromatografia de camada delgada (CCD). Das bactérias endofíticas foi avaliada sua capacidade de produção de Ácido Indol Acético. As frequências de endófitos isolados foram: fungos-folha 44.71% (55/123), fungos raízes 13% (16/123), bactérias-folhas 41.46% (51/123), bactérias raízes 1.62% (2/123), actinobactéria 0,81% (1/123). Da rizosfera foram isolados 81 actinobactérias. Na atividade antimicrobiana a maioria dos micro-organismos da rizosfera e endofíticos apresentou atividade antimicrobiana para bactérias Gram-positivas. No extrato dos micro-organismos endofíticos e rizosférico como no extrato da planta foram verificadas a presença de composto mono-sesquiterpenos. A produção de L-aspraginase foi verificada nos micro-organismos endofíticos e nas actinobactérias rizosférica. Na cinética de produção de L-asparaginase pelo endófito Streptomyces sp, verificou-se que o melhor dia de produção foi de 10° dia (0,0702 U/mL de L-asparaginase). Com relação as hidrolase foi verifacdo a presença de amilase e protease na maioria dos endofíticos. Das 53 bactérias endofíticas isoladas, 8 linhagens são produtoras de ácido indol acético. Por tanto, a prospecção dos micro-organismos rizosféricos e endofíticos isolados da planta I. pes-caprae (L.) R. Br. é uma promissora fonte de substâncias de interesse biotecnológico.

▼ My dissertation research spans several topics in plant microbial ecology. In two research projects, I have explored whether host specificity influences fungal endophyte community structure in plant leaves across several ecotypes of switchgrass (Panicum virgatum) and across 19 plant species within the Asteraceae family. In these works, I found contrasting results for the importance of host specificity, where fungal endophytes did not preferentially colonize specific host ecotypes within a single species, but did preferentially colonize specific host species within a single family. Additionally, I also found that more phylogenetically related host species within the Asteraceae family shared more similar fungal endophyte communities than more phylogenetically distant hosts. In another portion of my research, I applied a novel extension of the plant-soil feedback framework to microbiota associated with aboveground tissues, termed “plant-phyllosphere feedback”. In this work, I found that all four species tested experienced strong negative plant-phyllosphere feedback suggesting that phyllosphere, like rhizosphere (belowground), microbiota can potentially mediate plant species coexistence via negative feedbacks. In a final work, I tested whether traits displayed by bacterial endophytes in vitro can be used to reliably predict disease reduction outcomes in planta across variable climatic conditions using wheat plants and the fungal pathogen Fusarium graminearum. I did not ultimately find that in vitro trait assessments were good predictors of disease reduction outcomes in planta. However, my analyses did reveal differences among bacterial endophytes in their resilience to variable climatic conditions and degree of pathogen antagonism, emphasizing the importance of considering the abiotic environment for studies of putatively beneficial plant microbiota. Through my dissertation research, I have provided evidence for the extent and limitations of host specificity in the aboveground plant microbiome, the potential role of aboveground plant microbes in mediating species coexistence, and their role in reducing pathogenic outcomes in an agriculturally relevant host.

▼ Abstract Salicaceae plants; poplar (Populus trichocarpa) and willow (Salix sitchensis) are hosts of many endophyte species. Salicaceae endophytes colonize the plant endosphere and confer various growth benefits to host plants. First three studies were conducted focusing on how these endophytes colonize and support the growth of major food crops; rice and maize under nutrient limited conditions. Fourth study was conducted to investigate the biocontrol and other growth promoting traits of these endophytes. The first study was conducted to determine the growth promoting potential of Salicaceae endophytes to rice under nitrogen (N) limited conditions. Rice seedlings were inoculated with endophytes and grown in the N limited conditions in the greenhouse for about four months. Endophyte inoculated rice plants were taller, and had higher biomass and tiller numbers over mock inoculated control plants. Furthermore, colonizing performance of these endophytes in rice seedlings was verified through fluorescent microscopy, and counting in planta endophyte density. Rice seedlings were considerably colonized by these endophytes. The second study was conducted to determine the growth potential of Salicaceae endophytes in maize and rice plants in N limited conditions. Endophyte inoculated plants were grown in the greenhouse, and plant physical characters such as plant height and biomass were recorded as growth response. Endophyte inoculated plants outperformed the mock inoculated plants but response was variable depending on crop genotypes or inoculated endophytes. In addition, through 15N dilution assay, evidence of N fixing activity was observed in rice. The third study was conducted to determine the colonization performance of poplar bacterial and yeast endophytes in rice and maize. Bacterial strains; WP5 (Rahnella sp.), and WP9 (Burkholderia sp.) labeled with green fluorescent protein, and yeast strain, WP1 were introduced in rice and maize seedlings aseptically. The in planta density of endophytes were determined by counting colony forming units and colonization pattern was observed using microscopy. These endophytes were found competent to colonize both rice and maize seedlings. They were observed in leaves and roots, and localized mostly in the intercellular spaces of root cortex and leaf mesophyll tissues. Higher in planta population of endophytes were observed in leaves and stems in majority of the colonization assays. Positive growth response was observed in endophytes inoculated rice and maize plants as compared to mock-inoculated control plants. The fourth study was conducted to investigate the biocontrol potential of Salicaceae endophytes over a soil borne plant pathogen, Rhizoctonia solani AG-8. These endophytes were also examined to delineate their other plant growth promoting features including N fixing activity, indole-3- acetic acid (IAA) and siderophore biosynthesis, and phosphate solubulization. Endophyte strains; Burkholderia, Rahnella, Pseudomonas, and Curtobacterium displayed antagonistic activity against R.… Advisors/Committee Members: Doty, Sharon L (advisor).

▼ Endophytic fungi live within tissues of plant hosts without causing symptoms of disease. These fungi are broadly split into the taxonomically and ecologically cohesive Clavicipitaceous endophytes, which infect grasses, and the taxonomically diverse non-Clavicipitaceous endophytes, which are found in nearly all plants and have diverse ecological strategies. My dissertation has two sections: Section A investigates the intersection of Clavicipitaceous endophyte ecology with other ecological theory, including invasion ecology (Chapter II) and community ecology and climate change (Chapter III); Section B investigates the ecology of one group of non-Clavicipitaceous endophytes, the Xylariaceae, using a culture-based study in Ecuador (Chapter IV) and a next-generation sequencing based endophyte survey in Taiwan (Chapter V). Section B is centered on testing the Foraging Ascomycete (FA) hypothesis—the idea that some decomposer fungi may adapt an endophytic lifestyle to escape limitations in primary substrate in both time and space. In Chapter II, I utilized a host-specific Epichloë endophyte present ubiquitously in the European native range of the Pacific Northwest (PNW) invasive grass Brachypodium sylvaticum to test theories of invasion. In Chapter III, I examined the grass Agrostis capillaris in the context of a climate manipulation experiment in prairies in the PNW to elucidate patterns of interaction between multiple symbionts (Epichloë endophytes, dark septate root endophytes, and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi) within single hosts across climatic variation. In Chapter IV, I began to test the FA hypothesis by examining spatial relationships of Xylaria endophytic fungi in the forest canopy with Xylaria decomposer fungi on the forest floor in a remote Ecuadorian cloud forest. In Chapter V, I build on the results from the previous study, using a novel technique to examine spatial ecology of the Xylariaceae, pairing traditional mycological collection with the preparation of a next-generation sequencing metabarcode library of endophytes over a much greater area. This dissertation includes previously published and unpublished coauthored material. Advisors/Committee Members: Bohannan, B. J. M. (advisor).

▼ This dissertation consists of five chapters, each was written as a stand-alone manuscript. The introduction of each chapter serves, in part, as the introductory literature review. Herein is described a brief summary of each chapter’s introduction, methods, and results. Chapter 1 Crown and stem rust are major diseases of perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.). Plant breeders and pathologists often rate rust severity in the field using the modified Cobb scale, but this method is subjective and labor intensive. A novel, open-source system using ImageJ and R was developed to quantify pustule number and area using digital images collected from spaced plants in the field. The computer-processing pipeline included development of training data for prediction of pixel identity using random forest and noise reduction spatial processing. Raters and the computer scored rust severity on plant images of varying complexity including whole-plant (WP), five-leaf (FL), and single-leaf (SL) image series. Computer accuracy was determined using the SL, while the FL series gave insight into the true value of WP severity. Rater ability was assessed using a panel of nine scientists with varying levels of disease rating experience. Results showed rater perceptions of crown rust severity were very consistent across images, but agreement on severity values for a given image were low. Rater consistency for stem rust severity was low and FL scores were not strongly correlated with WP scores (r=0.36, P=0.03) indicating low rater accuracy. The computer-processing pipeline was able to accurately discriminate, count and quantify crown and stem rust pustules on leaf samples. Correlations between computer and the median rater score for crown rust were excellent (r>0.90, P< 0.001) for all image series. Similar to raters, there was lack of correlation between WP and FL series (r=0.20, NS) indicating this technique is limited to leaf or stem samples for stem rust and not applicable to WP. However, the computer-processing pipeline shows promise in replacing visual rating of WP for crown rust. Chapter 2 Perennial ryegrass is an important turf and forage species that often becomes infected with crown rust caused by Puccinia coronata f. sp. lolii. Disease control through Clavicipitaceous endophytes has been proposed as a potential biocontrol. Two field experiments were designed to determine the influence of native Epichloë endophyte infection on natural rust infection across a diverse panel of perennial ryegrass germplasm. Experiment 1 used an isogenic population design in which clonal plants infected (E+) or endophyte free (E-) were nested within 14 perennial ryegrass entries. Experiment 2 consisted of E+ and E- progeny from isogenic parents. Results showed the endophyte had no consistent marginal effect on crown rust severity across or within entries; however, several isogenic host pairs did show either favorable or antagonistic effects. Despite these sporadic effects, no differences were found between isofrequent family pairs indicating the presence of a…

▼ In this dissertation, I explore the diversity of endophytic fungi associated with above-ground tissues of neotropical ferns, assess factors shaping their community structure in three forests, and explore the contributions of endophytes and related strains to our understanding of the diversity and ecology of a representative genus of Ascomycota. In Appendix A, I report a survey of endophytic fungi from seven species of ferns at La Selva, Costa Rica. Using both species-level and phylogenetic analyses, I compare culturable endophytes as a function of fern taxonomy, frond tissues (blades vs. stalks), habits (terrestrial vs. epiphytic), and vegetation types (arboretum vs. primary and secondary forest) during two consecutive years. Analysis of>500 strains provides a first taxonomic overview of fern endophytes at a community scale and reveals high diversity, host preference, and interannual variation in fungal assemblages. However, when variation due to host species is taken into account, community structure is similar among fern tissue types, habits, and sampling sites over a small spatial scale. In Appendix B, I expand my work to evaluate the abundance, species-level and phylogenetic diversity, and distributions of fern-affiliated endophytes in three neotropical forests (La Selva, Costa Rica; Barro Colorado Island, Panama; Los Tuxtlas, Mexico). My analysis of > 2000 isolates reveals that communities differ significantly among fern species within sites, and among ferns in different sites. Intersite differences in communities are correlated with geographic distance and environmental dissimilarity. My work suggests that extrapolative estimates of fungal diversity should take into account not just host species, but locality and environmental variation as well. In Appendix C I focus on a representative genus of Ascomycota (Lecythophora) to evaluate how multi-locus phylogenetic analyses of endophytes can detect new species. Lecythophora is a geographically widespread genus that includes opportunistic human pathogens, produces novel secondary metabolites, and consists presently of six described species. Multi-locus analysis of 33 newly collected strains suggested seven phylogenetic species that are new to science and highlighted their capacity to inhibit growth of two plant pathogenic fungi. This work shows how recognition of cryptic species even in well-characterized genera has major implications for estimating fungal biodiversity.

▼ The ecological roles of two entomopathogenic endophytes: Beauveria bassiana and Purpureocillium lilacinum (formerly Paecilomyces lilacinus), were investigated in both applied and basic studies utilizing cultivated cotton, Gossypium hirsutum, as a model system. Fungal endophytes are defined as microorganisms living inside plant tissues, but do not cause symptoms of disease to the host. First, we evaluated the plant performance of cotton and the negative effects, if any, on two different herbivores feeding in planta under greenhouse and field conditions. We first tested cotton aphid (Aphis gossypium Glover) in greenhouse and field experiments in 2012 and 2013 and found a reduction in aphid reproduction when feeding on plants inoculated with the target endophytes. Our research also evaluated the effects of the endophytes on both the performance of cotton and development of its chewing herbivore pest (Helicoverpa zea). The results showed an increase in dry biomass and number of reproductive tissues on plants treated with the endophytes, along with reduced longevity and slower developmental rates across multiple H. zea life history stages. One of the mechanisms suggested behind endophytic-mediated plant protection from herbivores is a systemic response in the plant induced by the presence of the fungus. Thus, the plant hormone profile of plants inoculates with target endophytes was investigated using UPLC-MS/MS analysis. Results showed a priming effect of plant defense response when the plants were inoculated with the endophytes and then challenged by an insect herbivore, A. gossypi. Lastly, a field experiment was conducted to investigate the role of host plant genotype and its local genetic environment in shaping fungal endophyte communities. The diversity of endophytes was different depending on date of sampling, plant genotype and its local environment. Overall, our research results provide support for the beneficial effects of manipulating fungal endophytes in plants as part of reliable insect pest management strategies in the near future.

▼ Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi, colonizing over 80% of all plants, were long thought absent in wetlands; however, recent studies have shown many wetland plants harbor arbuscular mycorrhizae (AM) and dark septate endophytes (DSE). Wetland services such as biodiversity, shoreline stabilization, water purification, flood control, etc. have been estimated to have a global value of $14.9 trillion. Recognition of these vital services is accompanied by growing concern for their vulnerability and continued loss, which has resulted in an increased need to understand wetland plant communities and mycorrhizal symbiosis. Factors regulating AM and DSE colonization need to be better understood to predict plant community response and ultimately wetland functioning when confronting natural and human induced stressors. This study focused on the effects of water quality, hydrology, sedimentation, and hurricanes on AM and DSE colonization in three wetland species (Taxodium distichum, Panicum hemitomon, and Typhal domingensis) and plant communities of coastal wetlands in Southeast Louisiana and effects of an antimicrobial biocide, triclosan (TCS), on AM (Glomus intraradices) spore germination, hyphal growth, hyphal branching, and colonization in fresh water wetland plants (Eclipta prostrata, Hibiscus laevis, and Sesbania herbacea) from bottom land hardwood forest in north central Texas. The former, mesocosm studies simulating coastal marsh vegetation ran for five years. In the latter studies, AM spores and wetland plants were exposed to 0 g/L, 0.4 g/L, and 4.0 g/L TCS concentrations in static renewal and flow through exposures for 21 and 30 days, respectively. AM and DSE colonization was significantly affected by individual and interactions of four independent variables in mesocosm experiments. Similarly, spore germination, hyphal growth, hyphal branching, and AM colonization in selected wetland plants were significantly lowered by exposure to the TCS at environmentally relevant concentrations. However, levels of effects were plant species and fungal propagules specific. My results showed that natural and human induced alterations in environmental factors and chemical contaminants can significantly impact levels of mycorrhizal spore germination, colonization, and spore density in coastal and freshwater wetland plants. The resulting impacts on plant community structure and ecosystem function require further study.

▼ Fungal endophytes of the genus Neotyphodium form stable symbiotic associations, with grasses, that are symptomless and generally considered to be mutualistic. The benefits that these fungi confer to their grass hosts are exploited in pastoral agriculture systems. The production of a range of secondary metabolites, specifically alkaloids including peramine and ergovaline can give their host plants an ecological advantage in certain environments. Neotyphodium endophytes are asexual and have lost the ability to transfer horizontally between hosts making seed transmission a vital feature of the association. This thesis reports the occurrence of phenotypically different perennial ryegrass plants (Lolium perenne) in a population infected with Neotyphodium lolii. Here we show that the change in the plants is directly attributable to a variant endophyte that they host. Isolation of the variant endophyte reveals a change in colony growth compared to the wild-type resident endophyte in the population, which has a white and cottony phenotype. Colonies of the variant endophyte are smaller than wild-type colonies and mucoid, with hyphal filaments forming aggregates. Evidence shows that the switch between colony morphologies occurs at a very high frequency, is reversible, and appears to be environmentally induced. This suggests that the switching phenomenon involves gene regulation rather than mutation. When endophyte-free plants are infected, with either white and cottony (wild-type) or mucoid (variant) fungal colonies, they assume a morphology consistent with the state of the fungus at the time of inoculation, that is normal or dwarfed, respectively. In addition, re-isolation of endophyte from either normal or dwarfed plants always yields white and cottony or mucoid colonies, respectively, suggesting that the host environment stabilizes the state of the fungus. Proteomic profiling revealed differences in protein expression between plants infected with either the wild-type or mucoid fungus. Furthermore, host plants containing the mucoid fungus have never flowered or produced seed. Thus, if this change in the fungal symbiont occurs in a competitive natural environment the mucoid fungus and its host plant may not persist beyond the first generation. This thesis provides insights into the plastic nature of fungal endophyte/grass symbiota and discusses possible mechanisms for the observed morphological switching in culture and host dwarfing.

L’hévéa (Hevea brasiliensis) est actuellement la seule source commerciale de caoutchouc naturel. Parmi les maladies affectant l’hévéa, la CLF (« Corynespora Leaf Fall ») causée par le champignon Corynespora cassiicola, est devenue en une cinquantaine d’années un fléau pour l’ensemble des pays hévéicoles d’Asie et d’Afrique. Actuellement, la gestion du problème consiste à arracher les clones les plus sensibles et à traiter les arbres avec des fongicides en cas d’épidémie. Cependant, le nombre de clones touchés par la maladie ne cessant d’augmenter, il devient urgent de sélectionner de nouveaux clones à la fois tolérants et aptes à la production. Nos travaux ont permis de caractériser le gène codant la cassiicoline, toxine protéique glycosylée secrétée par C. cassiicola, et d’analyser sa diversité. Une étude comparative portant sur trois isolats de C. cassiicola d’agressivité contrastée a montré la présence du gène Cas1 chez les isolats de forte et moyenne agressivité, alors qu’il n’est pas détecté chez l’isolat de faible agressivité. Les niveaux d’agressivité des isolats sont corrélés aux niveaux de transcrits du gène de cassiicoline. Le rôle de la cassiicoline serait prépondérant dans les phases précoces de l’infection. L’analyse de diversité du gène de cassiicoline à partir d’une collection d’isolats provenant de différents hôtes et d’origines géographiques variées, a révélé l’existence d’au moins six isoformes protéiques (Cas1 à Cas6). La structuration génétique globale des isolats basée sur des marqueurs neutres est similaire à la structuration basée sur le gène de cassiicoline. Les isolats prélevés sur hévéa se regroupent en clades spécialisés, dont un correspondant aux isolats porteurs du gène Cas1, identifiés comme étant les plus agressifs sur hévéa. Cependant, 58 % des isolats testés semblent dépourvus de gène de cassiicoline, bien que certains génèrent des symptômes modérés sur hévéa, ce qui suggère l’existence d’autres effecteurs. Des formes endophytiques de C. cassiicola ont été isolées à partir de feuilles asymptomatiques provenant du Brésil, zone encore indemne de CLF. Les gènes de cassiicoline portés par ces souches (isoformes Cas3 et 4) ne semblent pas exprimés lors de l’interaction avec l’hévéa. Nous avons montré par ailleurs que les champignons endophytes de l’hévéa appartenant aux genres Trichoderma et Xylaria présentent une forte activité mycoparasitaire sur C. cassiicola, in vitro. Ces travaux ouvrent de nouvelles perspectives pour le contrôle de la maladie (diagnostic précoce, sélection de clones tolérants, lutte biologique).

Rubber tree (Hevea brasiliensis) is the only source of commercial natural rubber. The “Corynespora Leaf Fall” (CLF) disease, caused by the fungus Corynespora cassiicola, has become over the last 50 years a very serious problem in the Asian and African rubber producing countries. Currently, the main methods to face the problem are the uprooting of the most susceptible cultivars and chemical treatments in case of severe outbreaks. However, the number of cultivars affected by…

▼ The Botryosphaeriaceae is a family of fungi that includes many species, which are well-known as pathogens, saprophytes and endophytes of plants and especially of trees. As a result of their pathogenic nature and potential threat to plantations and agricultural crops, much research has been devoted to their identification. The main focus of studies that make up this thesis has been on the fungal complex referred to as Diplodia pinea sensu lato. These fungi are members of the Botryosphaeriaceae and studies have specifically concentrated on their taxonomy, host associations and mycovirus infections associated with them. Diplodia pinea sensu lato represents a species complex of highly similar morphological types that mainly infect Pinus spp., world-wide. The species complex includes what have in the past been known as the A, B and C morphological types of D. pinea. Multiple gene genealogies based on sequences of partial protein-coding genes and microsatellite markers were used to resolve the species complex into two genera, D. pinea and D. scrobiculata (= B morphotype). Diplodia-like isolates from Australia, Greece and Cyprus were characterized using both morphological and molecular characteristics. Morphologically, these isolates all have dark, thick-walled conidia (Diplodia-like) but phylogenetically, they could belong to three distinct genera of the Botryosphaeriaceae namely Diplodia, Lasiodiplodia and Dothiorella. Results of this study led to the description of Dothiorella casuarini from Casuarina spp. in Australia and they highlight the fact that similar morphological characteristics and disease etiology does not necessarily provide a true reflection of the evolutionary history of a pathogen. Phylogenetic studies on species of the Botryosphaeriaceae with Diplodia-like anamorphs revealed intriguing host association patterns. The availability of sequence data for many species of the Botryosphaeriaceae made it possible to extend the phylogeny to include six of the ten lineages as previously described for the Botryosphaeriaceae. Angiosperms appeared to be the most common, and possibly ancestral, host group of the Botryosphaeriaceae, with the exception of Macrophomina, Guignardia, Saccharata and “Botryosphaeria” quercuum. Infection of gymnosperms most likely occurred more recently, only in specific groups (Diplodia and Lasiodiplodia) via host shifts. Three distinct viruses have now been characterized from isolates of D. pinea sensu lato.

▼ En raison de la nature symbiotique des micro-organismes endophytes, cette étude visait à étudier l'activité antibactérienne, antifongique et cytotoxique chez les métabolites secondaires des extraits endophytes foliaires de plantes de l'Amazonie brésilienne et du Cerrado. Dans ce travail de thèse 147 micro-organismes cultivables ont été isolés (130 champignons, 3 bactéries e 14 champignons non-identifiés ou inconnus) à partir de 28 plantes (4 espèces collectées au Brésil et 24 en Guyane Française). Tous les micro-organismes furent identifiés par analyse moléculaire des régions spécifiques de l'ADNr en utilisant des techniques de séquençage génomique. Des champignons endophytes de l’ordre des Xylariales furent ceux de plus importante fréquence d’isolation dans cette étude, représentés par 25 isolats. Des extraits bruts à l’AcOEt furent produits à partir de cultures de chaque micro-organisme isolé. Une proportion relative signifiante (23,1%) des extraits démontra une activité sur Candida albicans ATCC 10213, pendant que 4% furent actifs sur Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 29213. Le potentiel cytotoxique des extraits fut évalué pour des lignées cellulaires humaines KB (carcinome cervical utérin), MDA-MB-435 (mélanome), et MRC-5 (fibroblastes de poumon normal), résultant en proportion signifiante avec activité d’inhibition de la prolifération cellulaire (24,4%, 23,1% e 16,3%, respectivement).Dix-huit métabolites secondaires furent isolés et identifiés à partir du fractionnement des extraits bruts de huit endophytes. Dix-sept de ces substances furent déjà décrites précédemment dans la littérature: l’acide piliformique (24) et la griséofulvine (25) isolés à partir de Xylaria cubensis SNB-GCI02; La phomopirone (26), la pyrenocine (27), l’alterpérilenol (28) et la novae-zelandine (29), isolés de Lewia infectoria SNB-GTC2402; 5-métilmelleina (31) et la dihidrosporothrioride (32) isolées à partir de Xylaria sp. SNB-GTC2501; La mycoleptodiscine (34) et la mycoleptodiscine B (35) isolées à partir de Mycoleptodiscus sp. SNB-GTC2304; le mycoepoxidiène (36) et la altiloxina A (37) isolés à partir de Diaporthe pseudomangiferae SNB-GSS10; L’acremonisol (40), le semicochliodinol (41) et le cochliodinol (42) isolés à partir de Chaetomium globosum SNB-GTC2114; la colletofragarone A2 (43) isolée à partir de Colletotrichum sp. SNB-GTC0201; la flavoglaucine (44) isolée à partir de Eurotium rubrum BBS01. Parmi ces substances, la flavoglaucine (44) isolée à partir de E. rubrum BBS01 démontra une activité comparable au contrôle fluconazol en C. albicans (CIM de 4 µg.mL-1). La substance (44) présenta IC50 >10 µM sur cellules normales MRC-5, ce qui en fait un candidat pour des études ultérieures. Dans ce travail, fut identifié pour la première fois l’activité de la colletofragarone A2 (43) isolée à partir de Colletotrichum sp. SNB-GTC0201. La substance inédite nommée pyrrocidine C (30) fut isolée à partir de L. infectoria SNB-GTC2402 et identifiée par des analyses spectroscopiques (Casella et al., 2013).

▼ The Botryosphaeriaceae is a family of fungi that includes many species, which are well-known as pathogens, saprophytes and endophytes of plants and especially of trees. As a result of their pathogenic nature and potential threat to plantations and agricultural crops, much research has been devoted to their identification. The main focus of studies that make up this thesis has been on the fungal complex referred to as Diplodia pinea sensu lato. These fungi are members of the Botryosphaeriaceae and studies have specifically concentrated on their taxonomy, host associations and mycovirus infections associated with them. Diplodia pinea sensu lato represents a species complex of highly similar morphological types that mainly infect Pinus spp., world-wide. The species complex includes what have in the past been known as the A, B and C morphological types of D. pinea. Multiple gene genealogies based on sequences of partial protein-coding genes and microsatellite markers were used to resolve the species complex into two genera, D. pinea and D. scrobiculata (= B morphotype). Diplodia-like isolates from Australia, Greece and Cyprus were characterized using both morphological and molecular characteristics. Morphologically, these isolates all have dark, thick-walled conidia (Diplodia-like) but phylogenetically, they could belong to three distinct genera of the Botryosphaeriaceae namely Diplodia, Lasiodiplodia and Dothiorella. Results of this study led to the description of Dothiorella casuarini from Casuarina spp. in Australia and they highlight the fact that similar morphological characteristics and disease etiology does not necessarily provide a true reflection of the evolutionary history of a pathogen. Phylogenetic studies on species of the Botryosphaeriaceae with Diplodia-like anamorphs revealed intriguing host association patterns. The availability of sequence data for many species of the Botryosphaeriaceae made it possible to extend the phylogeny to include six of the ten lineages as previously described for the Botryosphaeriaceae. Angiosperms appeared to be the most common, and possibly ancestral, host group of the Botryosphaeriaceae, with the exception of Macrophomina, Guignardia, Saccharata and “Botryosphaeria” quercuum. Infection of gymnosperms most likely occurred more recently, only in specific groups (Diplodia and Lasiodiplodia) via host shifts. Three distinct viruses have now been characterized from isolates of D. pinea sensu lato. Two of these were previously characterized and are known as Sphaeropsis sapinea RNA virus 1 and 2 (SsRV1 and SsRV2). The third dsRNA element more commonly found in association with D. scrobiculata was characterized in this dissertation and named Diplodia scrobiculata RNA virus 1 (DsRV1). It has a genome of 5018 bp with a unique genome organization characterized by two open reading frames (ORFs).

▼ Plants and the fungi that colonize them (endophytic fungi) are prolific producers of the kinds of structurally interesting and biologically active small molecules (natural products) that captivate chemists and biologists alike. The work reported here focuses on the isolation of new natural products by two different yet complementary strategies. In the first, we sought new chemical diversity from a largely unexplored pool of biodiversity - the endophytic fungi. In the second, we examined a well-studied natural product reservoir - traditional Chinese medicinal plants - using new and innovative biological screens at the Institute of Chemistry and Cell Biology at Harvard Medical School. The isolation and structure determination of a new inhibitor of STAT3 signaling from the Floridian endophytic fungus FA39 is described. FA39 showed 97% rDNA sequence identity to the ascomycete Phaeosphaeria avenaria. Bioassay-guided fractionation of FA39 yielded the STAT3 inhibitor phaeosphaeride A, and its inactive diastereomer phaeosphaeride B. The discovery of a new family of non-templated biopolyesters from the Costa Rican endophytic fungus CR873 is described. CR873 showed 99% rDNA sequence identity to the ascomycete Daldinia concentrica. This fungus produces large amounts of oligomers of (3R,5R)-3,5-dihydroxyhexanoic acid - the first example of a eukaryote that produces biopolyesters of this nature. The isolation and structure elucidation of two new cytokinesis-inhibitory cucurbitacins using a fluorescence imaging screen is described. The new cucurbitacins were isolated from Physocarpus capitatus along with a new biphenyl and the known compounds cucurbitacin F and 23,24-dihydrocucurbitacin F. Studies into the mechanism of action of the cucurbitacins are also reported. The isolation and structure elucidation of TRPV4 channel activators and the structure elucidation of an angiogenesis inhibitor from prefractionated traditional Chinese medicinal plants are described. TRPV4 activators kaikasaponin III from Sophora sp. and linoleic acid from Stellaria sp. and Fritillaria sp. were identified without any further chromatographic separation. The diterpene dimer bisandrographolide A was isolated from Andrographis sp. after a single round of HPLC and found to potently activate TRPV4 channels. Hydroferulic acid from Stellaria sp. was identified in a screen of angiogenesis inhibitors without any further chromatographic separation. Attempts to optimize the activity of hydroferulic acid are also described.
