Search for bioactive potentials from the endophytic fungi isolated from Cassia fistula.

Endophytic fungi are group of fungi that reside into the living plant without causing any symptom. Endophytic fungi may increase host defense system against various pathogenic microorganisms and contain secondary metabolites of respective host plant. Isolation of endophytic fungi and it‘s metabolites from Cassia fistula (locally Shonalu or Bador lathi) grown in Bangladesh is a recent and new approach. So, the purpose of this investigation was to isolate and identify the endophytic fungi from C. fistula and to identify novel and selective bioactive metabolites from the isolated endophytes.
