Description	Endophyte is a family of microorganisms that grows in the intra- and intercellular regions of plant tissues without causing any damage to the host plant. In 1999, Taylor et al. discovered endophytic fungi from the living fossil plant Trachycarpus fortunei. A long relationship between the microorganism and the host plant leads to mutual exchange of information and development of a common genetic stem that has helped the microbe to adapt to environmental stresses more competently. This has resulted in the increased compatibility of the endophyte with the host plant. Endophytes interact with other microbial groups that colonize plant tissues, such as mycorrhiza, pathogens, saprotrophs, and epiphytes, and are important components of plant microbiomes (Jain and Pundir 2015). The production of bioactive 218compounds/secondary metabolites by endophytes is believed to be directly linked to the evolution of the host plant. Endophytes may have incorporated genetic information from the host, which has helped them to adapt better within the host and in performing defensive roles (Strobel 2003).
