Abstract

Endophytes are an endosymbiotic group of microorganisms that colonize in plants and microbes that can be readily isolated from any microbial or plant growth medium. They act as reservoirs of novel bioactive secondary metabolites, such as alkaloids, phenolic acids, quinones, steroids, saponins, tannins, and terpenoids, that serve as a potential candidate for antimicrobial, anti-insect, anticancer, and many more properties. Endophytes are known to produce metabolites of utility value for various applications. Endophytes can also be beneficial to their host by producing a range of natural products that could be harnessed for potential use in medicine, agriculture, or industry. In addition, it has been shown that they have the potential to remove soil contaminants by enhancing phytoremediation and may play a role in soil fertility through phosphate solubilization and nitrogen fixation. In the present chapter we briefly summarize the importance of endophytic bacteria and their role in abiotic and biotic stresses.
