- Observation Twenty-three fungal strains were isolated from inflorescences and tubers of three Balanophora japonica plants.
- Observation Predominant endophytic isolates of Balanophora japonica were Trichoderma-Hypocrea and Penicillium, with Phialemonium also present.
- Observation The Trichoderma-Hypocrea group was also predominant in the host plant Symplocos lancifolia.
