Endophytes are useful in agriculture and in the food and pharmaceutical industries as metabolites source of human interest. Brazilian medicinal plants with etnobotanical history, offer great opportunities to discovery new bioactive metabolites. In this study,282 colonies of endophytic fungi were obtained from aerial parts of B. grossularioides. The frequency of complete fungal colonization of all the fragments was 53.6%, and the total number of grown colonies obtained only 55.24% of the leaves and stem of 51.66% presented distinct morphotypes and were isolated. Forty eightn and 23 different morphotypes were identified from leaves and stems, respectively. The antimicrobial activity of aqueous extracts obtained from the isolated endophytic fungi proved to be ineffective when confronted with both the yeast strains of the genus Candida and with Staphylococcus aureus bacteria. |
