MYCOCHEMICAL ANALYSIS OF ENDOPHYTIC FUNGI OF EUPHORBIA MILII DES MOUL. WITH RESPECT TO THEIR MEDICINAL PROPERTIES

Euphorbiaceae is one of the largest plant family, ranging from large woody trees to simple weeds. Many of these have varied decorative, medical, industrial, and food-related characteristics. Although latex is poisonous, it is the most desirable product derived from the Euphorbia species and contains a variety of naturally occurring biologically active compounds. The present study focuses on mycochemical analysis of endophytic fungi from Euphorbia milii Des Moul., which has been reported to influence Hormonal balance and pollution-absorptive features. Endophytes can produce new lead molecules with different bioactive compounds. Fungal endophytes support the healthy life cycle of their host plants using a multitude methods. Alternaria sp., Aspergillus sp., Fusarium etc. endophytic fungi were isolated from Euphorbia milii Des Moul.
