Dose-response effects on spatial learning and memory after subacute exposure of HAB10R12 endophytic extract in mice / Radhia Azia Redzuan
An endophyte is an endosymbiont, often a bacterium or fungus, which lives within a plant for at least part of its life without causing apparent disease. Endophytes may benefit host plants by preventing pathogenic organisms from colonizing them. Our strain of interest is HAB10R12 , which is found in...
