Abstract: | Endophytes are fungi that cause asymptomatic infections in leaves and stems of healthy plants. This study evaluated the presence of endophytic fungi on leaves of Rosa hybrida collected in Bogota, (Colombia) using histological techniques and light microscopy. Histological preparations showed fungal mycelium with few cells in the vascular tissue. Colonization of mesophyll cells was not observed. Visualization of fungal cells within plant tissues is a confirmatory test of the endophytic habitat of fungi isolated from leaves of Rosa hybrida. |
