Endophytic yeasts are microorganisms that inhabit the internal tissues of plants and are adapted to various environmental stress factors. In this study, the adaptive properties of endophytic yeast strains isolated from different plant organs were investigated under temperature, salinity (NaCl), and pH conditions. The ability of the strains to produce biomass at 20 °C, 28 °C, and 40 °C was evaluated, as well as their growth activity at NaCl concentrations ranging from 0 to 20% and pH values of 3, 7, and 9. The results demonstrated that 28 °C is the optimal temperature for all tested strains. Growth was maintained under 5–15% NaCl conditions, whereas tolerance to 20% NaCl was observed only in certain strains. At neutral pH 7, all strains exhibited good growth, while some strains also showed adaptation to alkaline conditions. These findings confirm the ecological adaptability of endophytic yeasts and highlight their biotechnological potential.
