By inhibiting sexual reproduction by their hosts, what advantage is gained by parasites such as endophytic fungi?

#Section 1: Ecology

Asexual reproduction by plants promotes indirect transmission of the parasite
Plants that reproduce asexually live longer and therefore the parasite will be able to exploit the host over a longer period of time
There is no advantage—inhibition of sexual reproduction is a by-product of the infection and does not benefit the parasite
It decreases the likelihood that resistant host plants will evolve
