The ongoing development of biotechnology-produced flavor compounds has led to the utilization of a special group of plant-associated microbes, called endophytes, which have emerged as a promising resource for new bioactive compounds. Through a long-term coexistence with their hosts, these microbes have developed powerful metabolic pathways from which numerous highly beneficial volatile organic compounds have been reported. With a focus on new potential flavor compounds, this review aims to present recent discoveries and research that points to endophytes as promising biocatalysts of the future. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd.
