Effects of the Endophytic Fungus MF23 on Dendrobium nobile Lindl. in an Artificial Primary Environment.

ABSTRACT: The quality of Dendrobium nobile Lindl. is related to its endophytic fungi. It has been reported that the mycorrhizal fungus MF23 helps to increase the content of dendrobine in Dendrobium, but few studies have explained the mechanism underlying this phenomenon. In a previous study, we verified the mechanism of symbiosis between MF23 and D. nobile on agar medium. The research carried out in this study on bark medium, similar to the natural environment, is of great importance because of its benefits for wide application. We found a significant effect, especially in the later period of cultivation, in which the highest dendrobine content in the experimental group was 0.147%, which is equivalent to 2.88 times that of the control group, and suggesting that MF23 promoted
