Abstract:Endophytic fungi, microfungi that internally infect living plant tissues, are reported to have the ability to synthesize many enzymes, plant growth hormones and pharmaceutically active compounds similar to those in their hosted plants. This has opened a potential path of using endophytic fungi as a bioreactor for mass production of bioactive compounds at a lower cost. Therefore, it is necessary to establish a robust procedure for the isolation and identification of potential fungal strains that are capable of … Show more
