چکیده

endophytes are considered as an important source of bioactive natural products because thesemicroorganisms are able to occupy unique biological niches and grow in non-ordinaryenvironments. therefore, endophytic fungi of medicinal plants can be developed for medicinalapplications. on the other hand, medicinal properties of plant can be ascribed to its endophyticfungi. thymus sp. is widely used as a medicinal plant. in this research, the endophyticmicroflora of the plant was studied. in order to isolate endophytic fungi, 800 segments of 6thymus species were collected from its natural habitats in hamedan province (iran) andmedicinal plants garden during the seasons of spring, summer and fall 2011. finally, 95 isolatesconsisting of 11 different fungal genera, 6 yeast isolates and 19 infertile mycelium wereobtained. among the identified isolates, the most abundant genera were alternaria, phoma, andfusarium. the above mentioned genera and the genera of cladosporium and colletorichumwere first reported from thymus in iran. the genera curvularia, cylindrocarpon, drecheslra,aspergillus, stemphylium and ulocladium were also, first reported from thymus in the world.

Biodiversity and tissue-recurrence of endophytic fungi in Tripterygium wilfordii

A total of 343 endophytic fungal isolates representing 60 taxa including 30 morphotypes were isolated from the different parts of the Chinese medicinal plant, Tripterygium wilfordii. In most cases fungal strains were only identified to genus because species identification was difficult in these speciose genera. Non-sporulating isolates were designated as Morphotypes 1 to 30. The endophytic asse...

Isolation and Identification of Endophytic Fungi from Actinidia macrosperma and Investigation of Their Bioactivities

Endophytic fungi from the Chinese medicinal plant Actinidia macrosperma were isolated and identified for the first time. This was the first study to evaluate their cytotoxic and antitumour activities against brine shrimp and five types of tumour cells, respectively. In total, 17 fungal isolates were obtained. Five different taxa were represented by 11 isolates, and six isolates were grouped int...

Isolation and identification of phylloplane and endophytic fungi from one ornamental plant, Mangifera indica

Biodiversity of phylloplane and endophytic fungi have been considered as one of the rich source of novel natural compounds of biological activities and a high level of structure diversity on the leaf surfaces. Bioactive components produced by phylloplane and endophytes have shown promising potentiality towards human health. In this juncture, it is necessary to understand and manipulate this imp...
