In this study, eight endophytic fungi were isolated from the leaves, stems and roots of Michelia champaca. The isolates were screened and evaluated for their antifungal, anticancer and acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitory activities. All of the extracts exhibited potent activity against two evaluated phytopathogenic fungi. Chemical investigation of EtOAc extracts of the endophytic fungus Coll...

Eighteen endophytic fungi with different colony morphologies were isolated from the roots of Nymphoides peltata growing in the Dalsung wetland. The fungal culture filtrates of the endophytic fungi were treated to Waito-c rice seedling to evaluate their plant growth-promoting activities. Culture filtrate of Y2H0002 fungal strain promoted the growth of the Waito-c rice seedlings. This strain was ...

Alternaria is a cosmopolitan fungal genus widely distributing in soil and organic matter. It includes saprophytic, endophytic and pathogenic species. At least 268 metabolites from Alternaria fungi have been reported in the past few decades. They mainly include nitrogen-containing metabolites, steroids, terpenoids, pyranones, quinones, and phenolics. This review aims to briefly summarize the str...

Fungi that grow in plant tissue without harming the host are called endophytic fungi. This fungus has potential as a biological agent (biocontrol) controlling diseases. One of fungi can cause disease banana plants is Fusarium oxysporum, which wilt disease. Endophytic have antagonistic properties form nutritional competition and antibiosis. These be used agents. The purpose this study was to iso...

Mushrooms are macrofungi that famous for their nutritional and pharmaceutical values. On the other hand, lichens form of symbiosis representing complex relation between fungi algae. Understanding ability to grow over anything, this review is focusing on endophytic capable growing in association with mushrooms lichens, respectively. Although reports describing these rare, it important highlight ...

Many plants have evolved adaptations in order to survive in low nitrogen environments. One of the best-known adaptations is that of plant symbiosis with nitrogen-fixing bacteria; this is the major route by which nitrogen is incorporated into plant biomass. A portion of this plant-associated nitrogen is then lost to insects through herbivory, and insects represent a nitrogen reservoir that is ge...

Alternative is needed to overcome the problem of dandruff caused by C. parapsilosis. Endophytic fungi isolated from plants are capable synthesizing compounds produce various secondary metabolites. This study aimed obtain most active endophytic fungal isolates, determine class compounds, and antifungal activity (M. calabura) against Fifteen isolates M. calabura were coded FDK1-FDK15. There was a...

Avicennia marina (Tamil : Alai : Alai atti) : Avicennia marina is the dominant mangrose species in Karankadu and accounts for about 95% of the vegetative cover plant in Indian Sub-continent was investigated for endophytic mycoflora as a possible source of bioactive secondary metabolites. Being salinity resistant, this species dominate most mangrove area of the country including karankadu. Four ...

An endophytic fungus isolated from Lannea corammendalica displayed considerable antimicrobial activity. The fungus was identified as Colletotrichum gloeosporioides based on morphological features. The metabolite showed more activity against gram positive than gram negative bacterial pathogens. Antimicrobial activity against Staphylococcus aureus was highest with zone of inhibition 25 mm. The fu...
