Pharmacological potential of fungal endophytes associated with the genus Ocimum L.

Endophytes are a rich source of secondary metabolites such as tannins, phenolics, and alkaloids. Endophytic fungi have potential antioxidants, antimicrobials, anticancer agents, antidiabetic hepatoprotectants, growth promoters, immunomodulators. Recent studies shown that endophytes valuable undiscovered biomolecules. As result, endophytic isolates from medicinal plants can be used in the pharmaceutical, industrial, agricultural sectors. Ocimum species, for example, several properties traditional medicine. Fungal strong association with plants. Previous research has fungal sanctum produce phytochemicals alkaloids, terpenoids, cardiac glycosides, flavonoids, terpenes, volatile compounds. Additionally, direct impact on value genus Ocimum. This review aimed to discuss pharmacological diversity associated
