Vega (*) Insect Biocontrol Laboratory, United States Department of Agriculture, Agricultural Research Service, Building 011A, BARC-W, Beltsville, MD20705, USA Tel. +1-301-504-5101; Fax +1-301-504-5104 e-mail: vegaf@ba.ars.usda.gov Abstract The fungal entomopathogen Beauveria bassiana became established as an endophyte in coffee seedlings grown in vitro and inoculated with B. bassiana suspensions in the radicle. The fungus was recovered as an endophyte 30 and 60 days postinoculation, from stems, leaves, and roots, and at 60 days postinoculation one of the isolates was also recovered as an epiphyte. Fusarium sp., Rhodotorula sp., and four bacterial morpho-species were also detected, indicating these were present as endophytes in the seed. |
