The aim of this study was to screen endophytic fungi isolated from Vinca rosea for their potential produce acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitors.Endophytic V. (Catharanthus roseus), were screened AChE inhibitor production using Ellman's method. Maximum inhibition against (78%) observed in an isolate VS-10, identified be Alternaria alternata on morphological and molecular basis. also inhibited butyrylcholinesterase (73%). Significant increase (1·3 fold) achieved after optimization process...

Abstract The present study aimed at isolation of endophytic basidiomycetous fungi and evaluation their in-vitro in-vivo antidiabetic potential. Preliminary screening for activity was carried out using α-glucosidase inhibition assay. An isolate Sch1 (isolated from Aloe vera) , identified to be Schizophyllum commune Fr. on molecular basis, exhibiting more than 90% inhibitiory selected further studies. Detailed investigations potential ethyl acetate extract S. (Sch1), two different doses, were...

Abstract In search for ecofriendly alternatives to chemical insecticides the present study was conducted assess insecticidal potential of an endophytic fungus Schizophyllum commune and its mechanism toxicity by studying genotoxic cytotoxic effects as well repair using Spodoptera litura (Fabricius) a model. Different fungi were isolated tested their against S. . Among maximum mortality exhibited from Aloe vera Extended development, reduced adult emergence observed in larvae fed on diet...

This study aimed at isolating endophytic fungi from Citrus limon (L.) possessing antioxidative and genoprotective potential.Endophytic were screened for antioxidant activity using 2,2-diphenyl,1-picryl hydrazyl radical scavenging assay maximum (79·70%) was exhibited by culture MP1 identified to be Penicillium oxalicum on the basis of morphological molecular characteristics. The ethyl acetate extract subjected silica column chromatography followed LH 20 purification active metabolites....

Recent concerns about the possible adverse effects of agricultural chemicals on health and environment have generated a considerable interest in biological alternatives. This study aimed to test insecticidal potential fungus Aspergillus flavus revealed its genotoxic cytotoxic using Spodoptera litura (Fabricius) as model.The was isolated from surface dead insect investigated for against S. by bioassay studies. Significant increase mortality, prolonged development period reduced adult...

Abstract Background In the last few decades, considerable attention has been paid to fungal endophytes as biocontrol agents, however little is known about their mode of action. This study aimed investigate toxic effects an endophytic fungus Schizophyllum commune by analyzing activities antioxidant and detoxifying enzymes well morphology haemocytes using Spodoptera litura a model. Results Ethyl acetate extract S. was fed larvae artificial diet having 276.54 μg/ml (LC 50 fungus) concentration...
