Journal ArticleDOI
Anticancer compounds derived from fungal endophytes: their importance and future challenges.
TL;DR: This is a review of anticancer agents isolated from endophytic fungi from 1990–2010, based on the assessment of the authors of the paper of the cytotoxicity of each compound against specific cancer cell lines.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biosynthesis of antimicrobial silver nanoparticles by the endophytic fungus Aspergillus clavatus.
TL;DR: AgNPs can be mycosynthesized extracellularly using A. clavatus as the fungal system, which is highly advantageous over chemical synthesis not only because it can be synthesized on a large scale, but because of the ease of downstream processing and its biomedical application in antimicrobial activity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Chemical and functional diversity of natural products from plant associated endophytic fungi.
TL;DR: This review describes examples of naturally occurring bioactive compounds obtained from fungal endophytes from various host plants whose sources were well defined.
Journal ArticleDOI
Endophytic Actinomycetes from Azadirachta indica A. Juss.: Isolation, Diversity, and Anti-microbial Activity

TL;DR: There is an untapped resource of endophytic microorganisms that could be exploited in the biotechnological, medicinal, and agricultural industries and shown to have broad spectrum significant antimicrobial activity, while about 4% of them showed strong and acute inhibition to pathogenic fungi and bacteria.
Journal ArticleDOI
The endophytic mycoflora of bark, leaf, and stem tissues of Azadirachta indica A. Juss (neem) from Varanasi (India).
TL;DR: The rich and sizeable collection of endophytic fungi from this specific plant may represent a unique source of one or more of the interesting and useful bioactive compounds normally associated with A. indica such as the azadirachtins and related tetranortriterpenoids.
