Problems solved by technology

However, this causes two serious and related problems: high economic cost and high environmental cost
However, said patent only claims the germination vigor of the seed and the increase in the fresh weight and yield of the seedlings, not the mature plant or the seed (i.e. the kernel in the case of cereals)

Embodiment Construction

[0072] Mouse barley subsp. mouse L-form (Hmm) is an annual grass species and is a weed on roadsides, rough grass and heaths. Since the species typically grows in stressful environments, it may have evolved commensal conferring stress tolerance associated with endophyte infection, and these endophytes may help the plant grow under stress conditions. Endophytes isolated from Hmm could potentially benefit the cultivation of barley under low nutrient, drought stress and multiple stress conditions.

[0073] Materials and Methods

[0074] A replicated greenhouse experiment was used to examine the effects of ten fungal endophytes isolated from wild barley relatives on barley cultivars. To examine the effect of endophytes on barley grown under different light and temperature conditions, one experiment was carried out from October to February (autumn / winter) and the other from March to June (spring / summer) .

Abstract

A seed coating composition comprising a fungal endophyte isolated from a tissue of the plant Hordeum murinum and a carrier medium for application of said composition to a target seed, wherein at leastone of the fungal endophytes is vertical transmission competent.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the use of isolated and cultured endophytes from wild barley populations. In particular, the present invention relates to the isolation and culture of vertically traversing (VT) competent endophytes from wild barley populations, and the use of those VT competent endophytes in VT competent endophytes for isolation by inoculation. Use of at least one endophytic bacterium or a combination thereof in the bacterium to increase the dry weight of branches and leaves of crops, increase the average dry weight of grains and inhibit seed-borne infection. Background technique [0002] If grain growers want higher grain yields, it is widely accepted to increase chemical inputs. However, this causes two serious and related problems: high economic cost and high environmental cost. For tillage farmers, chemical fertilizer costs can account for as much as a quarter of direct costs. These fertilizers and other frequently applied chemi...
