Sumario:Certain Pooidea especies form persistent symbiosis with fungal endophytesof Epichloë genus. Although endophytes are known to impact the ecology and evolution of host species, their effects on parameters related with quality of plant biomass has been elusive. This article provides information about parameters related with the quality of plant litter biomass of twoi mportant grass species [Schedonorus phoenix and Schedonoruspratensis] affected by the symbiosis with fungal endophytes [Epichloë coenophiala and Epichloë uncinata, respectively] .Four population origins of S. phoenix and one of S. pratensis werei ncluded. Mineral, biochemical and structural parameters were obtained from three samples per factors combination [species [and population origin] x endophyte]. This data can be potentially used in other studies which, by means of data reanalyzing or meta-analysis, attempt to find generalizations about endophyte effects on host plant litter biomass. The present data is associated with there search article Roleoffoliar fungal endophytes on litter decomposition among species and population origins.
