The application of work by Márquez and associates in agriculture. Introduction: Endophytes are a type of fungi which live in the plant tissues and provide the plants with protection against the physical stressors such as heat and disease-causing pathogens. The endophytic fungi, called Curvularia protuberata , live within the aboveground tissues of the grass called Dichanthelium lanuginosum. The grass and the fungus , both will die in high temperatures, unless they live together by forming a symbiotic relationship. The formation of the symbiotic relationship between the grass and the endophytic fungus can help them survive through the temperatures as high as 65 °C.

Preoperative Diagnosis: Torn medial meniscus, left knee Postoperative Diagnosis: Combination horizontal cleavage tear/flap tear, posterior horn, medial meniscus, left knee. Operation: Arthroscopic subtotal medial meniscectomy, left knee Anesthetic: General endotracheal Description of Procedure: The patient was placed on the operating table in the supine position and general endotracheal anesthesia was administered. After an adequate level of anesthesia was achieved, the patient's left lower extremity was prepped with Betadine scrubbing solution, then draped in a sterile manner. Several sites were then infiltrated with 1% Xylocaine solution with Epinephrine to help control bleeding from stab wounds to be made at these sites. These stab wounds were made anterolaterally at the level of the superior pole of the patella for insertion of an irrigation catheter into the suprapatellar pouch area, anterolaterally at the level of the joint line for insertion of the scope and anteromedially at…
