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.

New Tricoderma Species and Six Unrecorded Species of Endolichenic Fungi Isolated from Lichens [PDF]
MycobiologyDuring a project investigating the diversity of fungi associated with lichens, numerous strains of Sesquicillium and Trichoderma were isolated. Among these, several species were suspected to be unrecorded, prompting further study.

Endolichenic fungi: A hidden source of bioactive metabolites
South African Journal of Botany, 2020 Abstract Lichens are synergetic organisms composed of a mycobiont in relationship with one or more photosynthetic partners (photobiont). These organisms grow on various substrates and sometimes under extreme ecological environments. A different group of non-obligate micro-fungi also resides inside the internal tissues of the lichen thalli without ...

Lichen and Its Microbiome as an Untapped Source of Anti-Biofilm Compounds. [PDF]
Chem BiodiversLichens and their associated fungi give rise to the evaluation of several extracts and compounds against biofilms. ABSTRACT Lichen substances have been first described in the 1870s, and around 10 000 compounds have been isolated and characterized. Most of them have been evaluated for their activity on planktonic microorganisms (bacteria and fungi ...
