Biodiscovery of antibacterial constituents from the endolichenic fungi isolated from Parmotrema rampoddense. [PDF]

3 Biotech, 2020
A total of nine endolichenic fungi were isolated from the foliose lichen Parmotrema rampoddense (Nyl.) Hale. Of the nine endolichenic fungi, three taxa (Fusarium proliferatum, Nemania primolutea, Daldinia eschsholtzii) showed antibacterial activities as determined by the disk diffusion assay against ESKAPE bacterial pathogens.
