Resumen
- The potential of entomopathogenic fungi (EPF) to live as endophytes in various plant tissues has been demonstrated several times in recent years. However, the effects of plant colonization by these endophytes on the metabolism of the colonized plants have been only rarely addressed. We analyzed the volatile organic compound (VOC) profiles of tomato plants (Solanum lycopersicon) inoculated with three strains of Beauveria bassiana and a plant pathogen biocontrol agent (Trichoderma koningiopsis) compared to control plants.
