Relatively little is understood, however, regarding the potential spillover effects of human-animal interaction from the non-work to work context.

Previous studies on this strain led to the discovery of several novel compounds such as hectochlorins and jamaicamides. However, bioinformatic analyses of its genome indicate the presence of numerous cryptic biosynthetic gene clusters that have yet to be characterized.

Previous studies of this strain led to the discovery of several novel compounds such as the hectochlorins and jamaicamides; however, bioinformatic analyses of its genome suggested that there were many more cryptic biosynthetic gene clusters yet to be characterized. To potentially stimulate the production of novel compounds from this strain, it was co-cultured with .
