Abstract
- Endophytic fungi are highly potential for the production of pharmaceutically valuable compounds such as anticancer, antioxidant, antimicrobial, antidiabetic and industrial enzymes, etc. Today human faces a lot of challenges for existence due to the appearance of new diseases, infections, drug resistances and imbalances in the ecosystems. Here endophytes were the potential sources for the new remedies. Endophytes are contemplated as a treasury for bioprospecting, and they assist in many forms to conquer many complications. Among the various endophytic microbes, fungi have been found most potential microorganisms which are a reservoir of largely untapped bioactive metabolites. In the future we need to seek for endophytes for their bioactive compounds.
