“…Endophytic species of the fungus Phoma can produce abundant bioactive metabolites, including polyketides, terpenes and terpenoids, thio-diketopiperazines, macrosporin, isocoumarin and cytochalasin derivatives, phenolic compounds, and alkaloids ( 1 – 3 ). These bioactive metabolites have anti-proliferative ( 4 ), antiviral ( 5 ), antimicrobial ( 6 ) anti-inflammatory ( 7 , 8 ) anticancer ( 9 , 10 ), and phytotoxic activities ( 11 , 12 ). Several reviews have discussed the potential values for applying these species, including their bioherbicidal ( 13 ), antimicrobial ( 14 ), and anticancer properties ( 10 ).…”
