Mycochemistry of marine algicolous fungi

Abstract: Marine algicolous fungi refer to the fungi inhabiting or associated with marine algae, which have attracted a great attention for natural product researchers due to their chemical diversity and biological activity during the past two decades. Up to the end of 2014, a total of 366 new natural products, including polyketides, terpenoids, polyketide-terpenoids, peptides, alkaloids, and shikimate derivatives, have been characterized from them. Among these metabolites, 240 compounds feature cytotoxic, antibacterial… Show more

“…Most of the algicolous fungi distributed in the genera of Aspergillus and Penicillium , which belong to the facultative marine fungi that were frequently discovered from different groups of algae [1,2]. However, four strains of the fungal genus Eurotium including E. cristatum [3], E. rubrum [4], Eurotium sp.…”

“…6 Algae are a major source of marine derived fungi and the chemistry of these organisms has been reviewed. 7 A comprehensive review discusses the diversity of holothurian triterpene glycosides and their bioactivities reported over the last six decades. 8 The diterpenoid chemistry of gorgonians and the diverse chemistry derived from Spongia species have been reviewed.…”

“…All plants in natural ecosystems studied to date appear to be symbiotic with fungal endophytes [22,23]. Regarding to the marine environment, endophytes can be found in associations with seaweed and represent an ecologically defined group of marine-derived organisms denominated Marine Algicolous Fungi (MAFs) [24]. These organisms benefit from this ecological relation usually getting nutrition and protection from the host organism, in return, endophytes play important roles in the ecological adaptation of their host, such as increasing environmental stress tolerance, improving plant vigor and decreasing herbivore attack by producing certain secondary metabolites [25,26].…”
