The multiphasic approach used to identify this strain was based on morphology and ITS gene sequence analysis. The chemical investigation of A. flavus using potato dextrose and minimal medium, using both stationary and agitated methods, resulted in the isolation of kojic acid, α-cyclopiazonic acid, and 20,25-dihydroxyaflavinine. Another 18 compounds in these extracts were identified by UHPLC-HRMS/MS, of which dideacetyl parasiticolide A has been described for the first time from A. flavus. Aflatoxins, important chemomarkers of A. flavus, were not detected in any of the extracts, thus indicating that the CL7 strain is non-aflatoxigenic. The biological potential of all extracts was evaluated, and the best results were observed for the extract obtained using minimal medium against Trichophyton rubrum and Mycobacterium tuberculosis."],"journal":["Brazilian journal of microbiology : [publication of the Brazilian Society for Microbiology]"],"pagination":["1201-1214"],"full_dataset_link":["https://www.ebi.ac.uk/biostudies/studies/S-EPMC8324641"],"repository":["biostudies-literature"],"pubmed_title":["Chromolaena laevigata (Asteraceae) as a source of endophytic non-aflatoxigenic Aspergillus flavus: chemical profile in different culture conditions and biological applications."],"pmcid":["PMC8324641"],"pubmed_authors":["Balbinot RB","Meneguello JE","Cabral MRP","Polli AD","Polonio JC","Pamphile JA","de Oliveira JAM","Bernardi DI","Dias Filho BP","Nakamura TU","Sarragiotto MH","Cardoso RF","Baldoqui DC","do Carmo MRB","Endo EH","Azevedo JL","Zanqueta EB"],"additional_accession":[]},"is_claimable":false,"name":"Chromolaena laevigata (Asteraceae) as a source of endophytic non-aflatoxigenic Aspergillus flavus: chemical profile in different culture conditions and biological applications.","description":"Endophytes are microorganisms that form symbiotic relationships with their host.
