Abstract: Fungus-gardening (attine) ants grow fungus for food in protected gardens, which contain beneficial, auxiliary microbes, but also microbes harmful to gardens. Among these potentially pathogenic microorganisms, the most consistently isolated are fungi in the genusEscovopsis,which are thought to co-evolve with ants and their cultivar in a tripartite model.
