Abstract
AbstractObservations in the field suggest that certain species of endophytic fungi which occur, but are normally dormant, in the leaves ofQuercus roburcan be stimulated to pathogenic development by the feeding activity of certain gall insects. As a result of the death of leaf tissue the gall is also killed. This antagonistic relationship between endophytic fungi and gall insects is illustrated in the following three examples:Kabatiella apocrypta / Trioza remota, Gloeosporium quercinum / Neuroterus numismalisandDichomera saubinetii / Polystepha panteli.
