Abstract: A process and method for the production of endophytes as plant inoculant products, specifically Clonostachys rosea strain 88-710, for the promotion of plant vigor, health, growth and yield are disclosed. The endophyte, Clonostachys rosea strain 88-710 produces a fungal conidial preparation by utilizing a discrete solid substrate fermentation system, namely Potato Dextrose Agar or Malt Extract Agar. Additionally, the endophyte, Clonostachys rosea strain 88-710, can act as an inoculant to stimulate and have an additive effect with rhizobium bacteria on the production of nitrogen fixing nodules on legumes and growth enhancement e.g. beans, soybeans, peas and alfalfa. As well, Clonostachys rosea strain 88-710, can combine with rooting hormones, e.g. indole-3-butyric acid (IBA) to provide inoculant and rooting benefits to cuttings/transplants of plants.

Abstract: A feed/food process and product that provides a stabilized feed/food supplement that enhances the conversion efficiency and levels of omega 3 essential fatty acids including docasahexaenoic acid (DHA), Docosapentanenoic acid (DPA) and eicosapentenoic acid (EPA) in livestock/human products therefrom e.g. poultry. Specifically, Chickens (var. Ross) are fed a stabilized form of non-marine, non algal source omega 3 fatty acids including DHA, EPA, DPA for 5 weeks during a total 6 week production period that results in conversion efficiencies and increased levels of omega 3 fatty acids including DHA, EPA, DPA in various cuts and parts of poultry meat (legs, breasts etc. with or without skin) that also results in improved production benefits in terms of weight gains, improved flavour, taste, tenderness and less stress in poultry during production/transporting and the production of feeds/food and or ingredients with reduced levels of contaminants e.g. heavy metals.
