Abstract:The emergence of antibiotic-resistant strains of microorganisms calls for research and the development of strategies to curb this menace. The screening of antimicrobial compounds from endophytic fungi is a promising way to meet the increasing threat of drug-resistant. This study aims at evaluating the antimicrobial activity of the endophytic fungal extract of Colletotrichum sp. from the leaves of Vernonia amygdalina (Del). Endophytic fungal isolation, cultivation, and identification were carried out using stan… Show more
