The present study focused on the isolation and identification of fungal endophytes from Talinum fruticosum. Endophytic fungi live inside the higher plants apparently without causing harm. Talinum fruticosum has medicinal value and is a good source of vitamins A and C, an excellent source of calcium and phosphorus. Leaves and stems of Talinum fruticosum were evaluated to isolate endophytic fungi from Talinum fruticosum collected from different regions of Mysuru, Karnataka, India. All isolates of fungal species were identified based on morphological characteristics, mycelium, asexual spores, and sexual spores observe under the compound microscope. 20 species were isolated from leaves, and 5 fungal species were isolated and identify fungal species from leaves are Rhizopus sp, Aspergillus sp, Penicillium sp, Rhizopus stolonifera, Aspergillus sp, Fusarium sp, and sterile hyphae. 3 fungal species were unidentified. And 20 species were isolated from the stems and 6 fungal species were isolated and identify the fungal species from stems were Fusarium sp, Curvalaria sp, Aspergillus sp, Rhizopus stolonifera, Colletotrichum sp, Trichoderma sp, Sterile hyphae. 5 fungal species were unidentified.

“…The isolation and functional characterization of endophytic fungi from various plant species attract increasing attention and have been subject of a number of studies in recent years (for review, see [20][21][22][23][24][25]). A significant part of this research has been directed towards characterization and utilization of the functional diversity of endophytic fungi from traditional medicinal plants, aiming to obtain novel pharmaceutically active biomolecules [26][27][28].…”

A total of 139 endophytic fungal isolates derived from 20 medicinal and aromatic plants were tested for their capacity to ferment rose oil distillation wastewater (RODW). Internal transcribed spacer sequence-based phylogenetic analysis affiliated the collected isolates to seven genera and nine different species, of which Alternaria alternata was the most widely represented. The fungal fermentation of RODW was evaluated through analysis of the sugar and phenolics content and phenolics composition. After cultivation in a small volume of RODW, the performed cluster analysis grouped the isolates in four distinct clusters according to their capacity to ferment RODW sugars and phenolics. Further larger volume shake-flask cultivation of a selected subset of fungi with a pronounced RODW fermentation capacity, outlined three groups of isolates with a distinct pattern and dynamics of sugars and phenolics fermentation. High-performance liquid chromatography analysis of RODW phenolics extracts following the fermentation by the selected fungal isolates showed two main types of changes in phenolics composition: (1) changes in the relative abundance of part of the RODW phenolic compounds, mainly due to utilization of sugar residues from the RODW phenolic glycosides and (2) biosynthesis of new phenolic compounds, most of which are specific to the endophytic fungal isolates used for RODW fermentation. The overall results of the study clearly demonstrate that endophytic fungal isolates represent a rich and untapped source for efficient fermentation of RODW and other agro-industrial phenolics-rich wastewaters and highlight their capacity for directional changes and modification of RODW phenolics composition towards further wastewater phenolics valorization.

“…These endophytes have the potential to produce one or more bioactive compounds against pathogenic bacteria [14]. Several researchers demonstrated that endophytic fungi isolated from mangroves Rhizophora apiculata and Bruguiera gymnorrhiza are known, have antibacterial activity against Gram positive and Gram negative bacteria [15,16].…”

Pathogenic bacteria Klebsiella pneumoniae is the cause of pneumonia disease in infants and adults. Antibiotics treatment is usually used to treat this disease. However, synthetic antibiotic use could lead to bacterial resistance. Therefore, novel antibiotics from natural resources are required to overcome this problem. The aim of present study is to determine the antibacterial activity of endophytic fungal extracts from mangrove plants Rhizophora apiculata and Bruguiera gymnorrhiza against K. pneumonia ATCC 700 603. Isolation, cultivation, extraction and antibacterial activity test were conducted. Fourteen endophytic fungi were derived from the two mangrove species, where the two fungal isolates: Penicilium sp.2 and Penicilium sp.4 showed the highest antibacterial activity. The minimum inhibitory concentration of K. pneumoniae for both fungal extract is 3.6 mg mL-1, where bactericidal effect was observed. Additionally, antibacterial activity from the extract of Penncillium sp.4 is higher compared to Penicilium sp.2 extract, which is signified by larger average diameter of inhibition zone. However, at concentration more than 3.6 mg mL-1, both extract effectively inhibit the growth of K. pneumoniae. Our study reveals the potential of fungal extract from mangrove plant as prospective drug candidate to overcome the pneumonia disease. Keywords: antibacterial, pneumonia, endophytic fungi, mangrove
