Patent number: 10881060Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for identifying and/or characterising an endophyte strain, said method including providing a plurality of samples of endophytes, subjecting said endophytes to genetic analysis; subjecting said endophytes to metabolic analysis and selecting endophytes having a desired genetic and metabolic profile. The present invention also relates to novel endophytes having a desired toxin profile wherein the endophyte produces significantly less toxic alkaloids compared with a control endophyte such as standard toxic (ST) endophyte; and/or significantly more alkaloids conferring beneficial properties compared with a control endophyte such as ST endophyte. The present invention also relates to endophyte variants having a desired genetic and metabolic profile, wherein said endophyte variants possess genetic and/or metabolic characteristics that result in a beneficial phenotype in a plant harbouring or otherwise associated with the endophyte variant.Type: GrantFiled: April 21, 2015Date of Patent: January 5, 2021Assignee: Agriculture Victoria Services PTY LTDInventors: German Spangenberg, Kathryn Michaela Guthridge, John White Forster, Timothy Ivor Sawbridge, Emma Jane Isobel Ludlow, Jatinder Kaur, Simone Jane Rochfort, Maia Andrea Rabinovich, Piyumi Ekanayake
