“…In recent years, more and more attention has been paid to sustainable development (Rigobelo et al, 2021; Garuso et al, 2020; Berestetskiy et al, 2020). People have begun to interpret ecology and explore the potential of endophytic interactions in plant growth, and pay more and more attention to the ecological role of endophytic fungal secondary metabolites ( Carvalho et al, 2020 ; Amirzakariya and Shakeri, 2022 ). In order to obtain secondary metabolites sustainably, protect the ecological environment and guard human health ( Khanam et al, 2020 ; Bhadra et al, 2022 ).…”

“…In addition, endophytic fungi are also promising biological herbicide and plant growth promoters ( Poveda et al, 2021 ; Macias-Rubalcava and Garrido-Santos, 2022 ). In conclusion, the study of endophytic fungi and their secondary metabolites can not only protect plant resources and produce secondary metabolites sustainably, which is of great significance to environmental protection but also bring substantial benefits to the development of new drugs against human diseases ( Carvalho et al, 2020 ).…”

Two new pyranone derivatives phomapyrone A (2) and phomapyrone B (3), one new coumarin 11S, 13R-(+)-phomacumarin A (1), three known pyranones (4–6), together with three known amide alkaloids fuscoatramides A-C (7–9), as well as 9S, 11R-(+)-ascosalitoxin (10) were isolated from the endophytic fungus Phoma sp. YN02-P-3, which was isolated from the healthy leaf tissue of a Paulownia tree in Yunnan Province, China. Their structures were elucidated using extensive NMR spectroscopic and HRESIMS data and by comparing the information with literature data. In addition, all compounds were tested for their cytotoxicity activity against human tumor cell lines, and the results showed that new compounds 1-3 showed moderate inhibitory activity against the HL-60 cell line with IC50 values of 31.02, 34.62, and 27.90 μM, respectively.

“…However, some reports indicate that they are common to other Rosaceae plants—stone fruits, pome fruits, and roses [ 20 , 35 , 36 , 37 , 38 ]. The role of the aforementioned genera in the phytosanitary condition of Japanese quince is unclear due to their endophytic and saprotrophic properties [ 18 , 39 , 40 , 41 , 42 , 43 , 44 ], which would be interesting to discover.…”

In recent years, Japanese quince (Chaenomeles japonica) plantations in Latvia have increased. Interest in breeding Japanese quince is also known in other European countries and Russia. The occurrence and harmfulness of fungal diseases have become increasingly significant. However, there is a lack of overall information in the literature about the diversity of fungi afflicting C. japonica. In our study, we aimed to determine the diversity of fungi associated with C. japonica in Latvia, with the possibility of identifying the fungi that are most characteristically associated with certain parts of the plant. Our research was conducted from 2017 to 2019 in eight Japanese quince plantations in Latvia. Samples of plant parts with disease symptoms were collected. Pure cultures of fungi were obtained and identified using ITS region sequencing. We determined the relative density of identified genera of fungi, which were grouped using hierarchical cluster analysis depending on the plant part from which they were found. Various disease-like symptoms were observed and described. A total of 538 isolates of fungi were obtained that belong to 36 genera and represent different ecological niches. Fusarium, Alternaria, Botrytis, and Sarocladium were the genera most frequently found during our study. The number of identified cases of fungal genera differed depending on the part of the plant from which the fungi were obtained. However, it is not possible to relate a specific genus of fungus to only one certain part of a plant. Further research is needed to clarify the pathogenicity of detected fungi and the composition of species in the detected genera of fungi.

“…Endophytic fungi are mainly host-specific, causing little or no risk to non-target organisms or beneficial insects, such as pollinators (Carvalho et al, 2020). This specificity towards the host requires a close adaptation between the host plant and its fungal partner, suggesting a mutual influence resulting from co-evolution.…”

Endophytic fungi are microorganisms that live inside plants, establishing a mutualistic relationship, where both benefit from this interaction. They require protection and nutrients from host plants, and in return fungi can contribute to host's growth and nutrient uptake. In addition, they can improve plant tolerance to abiotic and biotic stresses and increase plant resistance to insects and pests. Endophytic fungi produce bioactive compounds similar to those of the host plant. The economic exploitation of these bioactive compounds is much promising. These bioactive products are related to sustainable production systems and to the development of new substances with strong pharmacological properties such as antiviral, antifungal, anti-inflammatory, antitumor and antiparasitic, antidiabetic and immunosuppressant, including response to resistant microorganisms. This study is a descriptive review, having as aim to approach the main benefits of endophytic fungi for host plants, as well as the biotechnological application of the bioactive compounds produced by them. The prospection of endophytic in extreme environment could result in discovery of new bioactive compounds with surprising potential for biotechnology area. So, the development of new research frontiers in this issue is indispensable for the sustainable exploitation of the great benefits that these microorganisms could provide to the science.
