endophytic fungus

Endophytic fungi is a kind of microbial resources, has broad application prospect can produce rich, novel structure, high bioactive secondary metabolites. In recent years, structurally novel compounds have been isolated from endophytic fungi, which have become an important source in the search for active lead compounds. Many studies have shown that endophytic fungi not only produce the same or similar secondary bioactive metabolites as their host plants, but also synthesize many other bioactive metabolites, indicating that endophytic fungi have great potential for development.

内生真菌（Endophytic fungi）是一类微生物资源，可产生丰富多样、结构新颖且生物活性优异的次生代谢产物，具备广阔的应用前景。近年来，科研人员已从内生真菌中分离得到诸多结构新颖的化合物，此类真菌也成为活性先导化合物发掘的重要来源。多项研究证实，内生真菌不仅能够合成与宿主植物相同或相似的次生生物活性代谢产物，还可生成多种其他活性代谢物，这充分体现了内生真菌巨大的开发潜力。
