Chemical profiling of fungal metabolites via the OSMAC approach: Novel identification of Brianthein W from an endophytic fungus, Hypomontagnella monticulosa Zg15SU.

In the previous report, we reported that originating from the rhizome of was known to produce a marine-derived natural product. An OSMAC-based approach was designed by modifying the nutritional composition of the growth medium to investigate any possible new metabolites produced by the strain. The culture filtrate and biomass were conditioned through the use of three basal media, namely, Czapek-dox, potato dextrose, and Wickerham broth medium.

Bioprospecting Study of Plant Growth Promoting Rhizospheric Bacteria from Oil Palm Plantation as Biological Control Agent of .

<b>Background and Objective:</b> The prioritisation of oil palm studies involves the exploration of novel bacterial isolates as possible agents for suppressing <i>Ganoderma boninense</i>. The objective of this study was to evaluate and characterise the potential of rhizospheric bacteria, obtained from the rhizosphere of oil palm plants, in terms of their ability to demonstrate anti-<i>Ganoderma </i>activity. <b>Materials and Methods:</b> The study began by employing a dual culture technique to select hostile bacteria.

Chemical analysis and anticancer activity of sesterterpenoid from an endophytic fungus Zg15SU and its host Baker.

Baker is one of the native Zingiberaceous species in a tropical forest of North Sumatra, Indonesia. Zingiberaceous species have been intensively studied and reported as herbal ingredients in ethnomedicine and currently their endophytic fungal associates were studied for pharmacological importance. Fifteen endophytic fungi were isolated from following morphological and molecular characterization.
