Phosphate solubilization by endophytic bacteria isolated from banana trees.

Forty isolates of endophytic bacteria isolated from banana tree roots were assessed as to their capacity to solubilize phosphate in a solid culture medium supplemented with different inorganic and one organic source of phosphorus. The amount of phosphorus (P) in each liquid medium was quantified, and an indirect assessment of acid phosphatase activity was performed. All assays had a fully rando...

Bioactivity of the Extract from an Endophytic Fungi Nigrospora Oryza Isolated from Pterolobium Hexapetalum-(roth.)

Nigrospora oryzae an endophytic fungus isolated from the leaf of a climber Pterolobium hexapetalum (Roth.) Sant. and Wagh. produced bioactive compound which are active against human pathogens. The organic extract (ethanol) of the endophyte Nigrospora oryzae was separated using HPLC and tested for biological activities. The ethanol extract was tested for antibacterial and anti fungal activity us...

A review of phenolic antioxidants isolated from endophytic fungi

Oxidative stress caused by overproduction of free radicals or oxygenated radical species plays a major role in causing many diseases. The findings suggest the use of antioxidants as compounds to control the release of these radicals or directly prevent their formation. Therefore, antioxidants can be used as drugs to reduce or prevent oxidative stress. Herbal medicines are the basis of modern ph...
