Cadina-4,10(15)-dien-3-one (1) was metabolised by Curvularia lunata ATCC 12017 in two different growth media to give three metabolites, one of which, 12-hydroxycadina-4,10(15)-dien-3-one (4), was new. Incubation of 3alpha-hydroxycadina-4,10(15)-diene (2) with the fungus produced three new analogues, namely, (4S)-1alpha,3alpha-dihydroxycadin-10(15)-ene (5), 3alpha,14-dihydroxycadina-4,10(15)-diene (6) and 3alpha,12-dihydroxycadina-4,10(15)-diene (7).

The spread and mobilization of toxic heavy metals in the environment have increased to a harmful level in recent years as a result of the fast industrialization occurring all over the world to meet the demands of a rising population. This research aims to analyze and evaluate the mycoremediation abilities of fungal strains that exhibit tolerance to heavy metals, gathered from water samples at Buckingham Canal, Neelankarai, Chennai. Water samples were examined for heavy metal analysis, and the highest toxic heavy metals, Zn, Pb, Mn, Cu, and Cr, were recorded.

The endophytic fungus, sp. L2D2 was isolated from the medicinal plant and has been assessed for extracellular enzyme production, plant growth promotion, antifungal, antibacterial, and antioxidant activities in vitro. The endophyte has been found to produce amylase, cellulose, and ammonia qualitatively.

Four novel resorcylic acid lactones (RALs), curvulomycins A-D (1-4), and six known congeners were isolated from the Beibu Gulf coral-derived fungus GXIMD 02512. Their structures including absolute configurations were established by extensive spectroscopic analyses along with experimental and calculated ECD spectra. Structurally, compound 3 harbors a unique γ-pyrone moiety rarely found in the natural RAL family.

Melanized fungi were rarely studied for their antifungal resistance (AFR) or clinical outcome, despite rising incidence of melanized fungal ocular infections and AFR in general. We report the antifungal resistance patterns, clinical outcome and clinico-microbiological correlation in two commonly isolated melanized fungi from ocular infections, and , at a tertiary eyecare centre in South India..
