Two compounds, apigenin-8-C-β-D-glucopyranoside and 2-(hydroxymethylthio)ethanol, were extracted from the fermentation products of a strain of endophytic fungus, Colletotrichum sp. NTB-2, isolated from the leafstalk of Ginkgo biloba. The structures of the two compounds were determined on the basis of extensive spectroscopic analysis, including 1D and 2D NMR spectral data. The compounds were obtained from microorganisms for the first time.

Endophytes from Ginkgo biloba and their secondary metabolites

The development of active extracts isolated from endophytes of Ginkgo biloba will help to improve the resources of the plant to be used in a broader field.

The fungus Colletotrichum as a source for bioactive secondary metabolites

The authors review the structurally interesting secondary metabolites produced by Colletotrichum and their biological activities and include nitrogen-containing metabolites, sterols, terpenes, pyrones, phenolics, and fatty acids.

Plant Bioactive Metabolites and Drugs Produced by Endophytic Fungi of Spermatophyta

Following the path traced by the blockbuster drug taxol, an increasing number of valuable compounds originally characterized as secondary metabolites of plant species belonging to the Spermatophyta have been reported as fermentation products of endophytic fungal strains.

The current status on secondary metabolites produced by plant pathogenic Colletotrichum species

The structures and biological activity of the secondary metabolites which have been isolated from these economically important filamentous fungi, including phytotoxic metabolites, are reviewed.

Fungal glycosides: Structure and biological function

Antagonistic Activity of Endophytic Fungi Isolated from Globba patens Miq. Rhizome against Human Pathogenic Bacteria

The results revealed that the majority of fungal isolates were strong antagonists against S. aureus and E. coli but not against MRSA and EPEC, and endophytic fungi residing in medicinal plants may be regarded as potential sources and encourage the exploration of more plant species for their antimicrobial activity.

Fungal Endophytes as Efficient Sources of Plant-Derived Bioactive Compounds and Their Prospective Applications in Natural Product Drug Discovery: Insights, Avenues, and Challenges

This review covers the studies carried out since the first report of taxol biosynthesis by endophytic Taxomyces andreanae in 1993 up to mid-2020 and highlights the prospects of endophyte-dependent biosynthesis of such plant-derived pharmacologically active compounds.

Endophytes from Gingko biloba: the current status

From this summary of data from the last two decades, it has become clear that more investigations are needed to fully characterize the endophytic microbial community inhabiting the maidenhair tree for both microbiological and pharmaceutical purposes.

The fungus Colletotrichum as a source for bioactive secondary metabolites

The authors review the structurally interesting secondary metabolites produced by Colletotrichum and their biological activities and include nitrogen-containing metabolites, sterols, terpenes, pyrones, phenolics, and fatty acids.
