Abstract
Almost 20–40% of global agricultural productivity loss has been recorded due to pathogen, weeds, and animals. Endophytes are symptomless microbes residing in the plant without harming it. Endophytes are the best alternative for agrochemicals utilized for plant health management. The complexity of the plant-endophyte interaction, such as saprophytic, facultative, reciprocal, and pathogenic, is a mystery to scientists and must be understood together with their communication system with the host. The modern molecular applications and advanced tools can be used for interaction study. The mode of action for pest management varies as per host, season, and ecology of plants; it has a profound effect on endophytic microbial activity. The tripartite interaction study of endophytes should be initiated by interdisciplinary approaches in an appropriate combination of input required to understand the endophyte mechanisms.
