To all of the hard working mentors and students in the program, have a great and happy holiday. This week in lab I have made yet another media to try and isolate these fungal cells. In my research I found an interesting article talking about endophytes actually giving plants tolerance to pollutants in the air, like from automobiles. I am amazed at how symbiotic these relationships are between endophytes and plants and just how much each one can gain from each other. The malt extract I am using is going to require 20 grams of malt extract and 9 grams of agar solution as a standard from the dichotomous key I am using.
