Endophyte compositions and methods for improved plant health

A synthetic composition, comprising one or more endophytes heterologously disposed to a treatment formulation, wherein the one or more endophytes comprise at least one polynucleotide sequence that is at least 97% identical to SEQ ID NO. 132, and the genomes of the one or more endophytes comprise one or more open reading frames encoding proteins whose amino acid sequences are at least 97% identical to one or more of SEQ ID NOs. 133-136, wherein the treatment formulation comprises a solid carrier and adherent.
