“…Fungi in the genus Cladosporium are known as prolific producers of bioactive secondary metabolites [199], some of which have been detected as possible determinants of detrimental effects on insects. This is the case of bassianolide, a cycloligomer depsipeptide identified as a product of a strain related to the C. cladosporioides s.c. [200]. The alkaloid 3-(4β-hydroxy-6-pyranonyl)-5-isopropylpyrrolidin-2-one was identified in the ethyl acetate extracts of another strain of C. cladosporioides displaying aphicidal activity [13].…”

The range of interactions between Cladosporium, a ubiquitous fungal genus, and insects, a class including about 60% of the animal species, is extremely diverse. The broad case history of antagonism and mutualism connecting Cladosporium and insects is reviewed in this paper based on the examination of the available literature. Certain strains establish direct interactions with pests or beneficial insects or indirectly influence them through their endophytic development in plants. Entomopathogenicity is often connected to the production of toxic secondary metabolites, although there is a case where these compounds have been reported to favor pollinator attraction, suggesting an important role in angiosperm reproduction. Other relationships include mycophagy, which, on the other hand, may reflect an ecological advantage for these extremely adaptable fungi using insects as carriers for spreading in the environment. Several Cladosporium species colonize insect structures, such as galleries of ambrosia beetles, leaf rolls of attelabid weevils and galls formed by cecidomyid midges, playing a still uncertain symbiotic role. Finally, the occurrence of Cladosporium in the gut of several insect species has intriguing implications for pest management, also considering that some strains have proven to be able to degrade insecticides. These interactions especially deserve further investigation to understand the impact of these fungi on pest control measures and strategies to preserve beneficial insects.
