The study of fungal endophytes and their metabolites isolated from medicinal plants of Withania somnifera reported dominant fungal species Gliocladium deliquescens, Mycelia sterilia, Phoma glomerata, Phoma humicola and Fusarium xylarioides. The fungi Fusarium xylarioides and Phoma humicola were reported to inhibit both gram positive and negative bacteria. The fungus Gliocladium deliquescens showed an inhibition for gram positive bacteria S. aureus. They show an efficacy of antibacterial property on E. coli, K. pneumoniae and S. aureus. These fungal isolates were found to produce metabolites rich in aldehydes, esters and ketones. .. Read More»
