Endophytes are microorganisms residing in plant tissues without causing harm and their relevance in medicinal plants has grown due to their biomolecules used in pharmaceuticals. This study isolated two endophytic bacterial strains from the leaves of M. oleifera and P.

The interaction between plants and microorganisms plays a major role in plant growth promotion and disease management. While most microorganisms directly influence plant health, some indirectly support growth through pest and disease suppression. Endophytic entomopathogenic fungi are diverse, easily localized, and have long-lasting effects on insect pests.

The growing threat of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) has underlined the need for a sustained supply of novel antimicrobial agents. Endophyte microorganism that reside within plant tissues as symbionts have been the source of potential antimicrobial substances. However, many novel and potent antimicrobials are yet to be discovered from these endophytes.

The need for food production rises with the era of expanding population. As a result, there is more indirect demand for chemical pesticides and fertilizers. Serious environmental concerns result from the continuous and careless usage of chemicals.

Although well established in plants and animals, the role of trait correlations in microbial evolution remains a major open question. Here, we tested whether genetic correlations in a suite of metabolic traits are conserved between two sister lineages of fungal endophytes and whether phenotypic divergence between lineages occurred in the direction of the multivariate trait combination containing the most genetic variance within lineages (i.
