Hongos Endófitos asociados al cultivo del Mango 'Haden' en Venezuela

The book "Endophytic Fungi Associated with the 'Haden' Mango Cultivation in Venezuela" offers a comprehensive analysis of the endophytic fungi linked to mango cultivation in Venezuela. The focus is on the popular mango cultivar 'Haden', known for its appealing appearance and excellent taste. Despite its popularity, many plantations have been abandoned since 2000 due to various issues such as diseases and nutrient imbalances. This study investigates the role of endophytic microorganisms and their impact on plant health. It demonstrates that the presence of these microbes plays not only a passive role but that the nutrient conditions of the plants are also crucial in favoring diseases. Thus, the book makes an important contribution to classical phytopathology and provides new perspectives for understanding the interactions between plants and microbes.
