60 Endophytes are fungi that live within the leaf and stem tissues of plants. The fungi obtain food from the plant and provide toxins and antibiotics to deter animals foraging, insect pests and microbial pathogens. Lichens are composed of a fungus and green algae or cyanobacteria. The photosynthetic green algae or cyanobacteria provide food and oxygen for the fungus; fungus absorbs water and minerals for partners and holds them up. Lichens grow slowly but live long. Lichens build soil; indicate air quality; provide food for animals. When 2 or more species live together and all benefit, this is Fungi are part of some very important mutualisms. 1.
