lowland tropical forest of central Panama. Here‚ we use molecular sequence data from 1403 endophyte strains to show that endophytes increase in incidence‚ diversity‚ and host breadth from arctic to tropical sites. Endophyte communities from higher latitudes are characterized by relatively few species from many different classes of Ascomycota‚ whereas tropical endophyte assemblages are dominated by a small number of classes with a very large number of endophytic species. The most easily cultivated endophytes
