Diaporthe
Encyclopedia
Diaporthe is a genus
of endophytic
filamentous fungus plant pathogens.
Diaporthe species have been shown to transform the infection-inhibiting factors (+)-catechin
and (-)-epicatechin into the 3,4-cis-dihydroxyflavan derivatives
Some species, like Diaporthe toxica
, produce secondary metabolites that result in toxicoses of animals such as lupinosis of sheep..

Endophyte
An endophyte is an endosymbiont, often a bacterium or fungus, that lives within a plant for at least part of its life without causing apparent disease. Endophytes are ubiquitous and have been found in all the species of plants studied to date; however, most of these endophyte/plant relationships...
