Investigation of foliar endophytic fungi of Taxus brevifolia across two locations in the Pacific Northwest: A Molecular Approach. This research was done as part of the Winter 2018 Molecular Biology class by Dr. David Oline. This research describes endophytes in general as well as those we found in Taxus Brevifolia (Pacific Yew) via genetic sequencing. Endophytic fungi, endo meaning inside and phyte meaning plant, are mutualistic or commensal fungi that reside entirely within and help plants.
