| Summary: | The potential contribution of marine sources to the discovery of new bioactive molecules was recently recognized but the biodiversity of marine microbes and the versatility of their bioactive metabolites have not been fully explored. Nypa Fruticans, a marine coastal plant has been claimed to have an activity against herpes virus and it has been used for treatment of various ailments. Through this research twenty-one endophytes from Nypa Fruticans are successfully isolated and characterize including two acremonium, one zygomycete, one trichoderma, one chlamidoconidia, one sporothrix, two glomeromycete, ascomycete, one arthroconidia and another ten of the isolates cannot be identified from different parts of this plant. |
