Abstract Plant–microbial symbioses are widespread in nature and can shape the ecology and evolution of hosts and interacting symbionts. Fungal endophytes—fungi that live asymptomatically within plant tissues—are a pervasive group of symbionts well known for their role in mediating host‐responses to...
