Endemic endophytic microorganisms: Diversity and Gene Mining
|
|
Institute for Microbial Biotechnology and Metagenomics,
University of the Western Cape
|
Endophytes (non-pathogenic microorganisms adapted to life inside plant tissues) are a poorly understood group. In collaboration with several other research teams, we aim to expand our understanding of the endophyte diversity of Cape endemic plant species, and to use metagenomic methods to access potentially valuable genes and enzymes from this important genetic resource
