Evaluation of bioactive secondary metabolites from endophytic fungus Pestalotiopsis neglecta BAB-5510 isolated from leaves of Cupressus torulosa D.Don

Abstract: Six endophytic fungi were isolated from Cupressus torulosa D.Don and identified phenotypically and genotypically. The fungal cultures were further grown and the culture was extracted by two organic solvents methanol and ethyl acetate. The screening was carried out using the agar well diffusion method against human pathogen such as Escherichia coli, Salmonella typhimurium, Bacillus subtilis and Staphylococcus aureus. Isolated strain of Pestalotiopsis sp. was showing prominent antibacterial activity. The crude m… Show more

“…All of the endophyte cultures were deposited at Center of Excellence in Fungal Research Mae Fah Luang University. All isolated endophytic fungi were characterised according to the modified method of Sharma et al (2016), including microscopic observation of mycelia, asexual/sexual spores and colony morphology.…”

“…Over time, some endophytic fungi have developed the ability to produce the same or similar bioactive substances to those produced by host plants (Sharma et al, 2016). This lends a great advantage to the study of the relationships between endophytes and their host plants (Fouda et al, 2015).…”

“…Altogether, six human pathogenic-bacteria and one human yeast-pathogen were used in an agar-well diffusion (AWD) assay, to determine the antimicrobial activity of the crude extracts obtained from the fungal endophytes [11, 18, 20]. Stocks (10 mg/ml) for both the intracellular and extracellular-extracts were made using DMSO as a solvent.…”
