Abstract
The role of the interaction(s) between medicinal plants (MPs) and their endophytes (bacterial microbiome) in the production of bioactive compounds (BCs) with therapeutic properties is emerging. Here, we propose Echinacea purpurea (L.) Moench as a new model to reveal the intimate crosstalk between MPs and bacterial endophytes, aiming to discover (new) BCs.Entities:
