Endophytic actinobacteria colonize internal tissues of their host plants and are considered
as a rich and reliable source of diverse species and functional microorganisms. In this study …

The medicinal plant Artemisia annua L. is presently the sole plant source of artemisinin, the
key ingredient of first-line antimalarial drug. As the content of artemisinin in the native plant …

Artemisia annua L. is presently the sole natural source of antimalarial drug artemisinin. We
established dual cultures of A. annua callus or regenerated plantlets with endophytic …

For thousands of years, medicinal plants have widely been used as natural medicines in the
treatment of human diseases (Pan et al., 2014). Nevertheless, medicinal plants are also well …

Salicornia bigelovii is a promising halophytic crop for saline soils in semi-arid regions. This
study was designed to characterize isolates of endophytic actinobacteria from S. bigelovii …

Artemisinin, isolated from an annual herbaceous plant Artemisia annua L., is an effective
antimalarial compound. However, artemisinin is accumulated in small amounts (0.01–0.1 …

Microorganisms associated with medicinal plants are of interest as the producers of
important bioactive compounds. To date, the diversity of culturable endophytic …

Endophytic actinomycetes from Azadirachta indica A. Juss. were screened and evaluated for
their anti-microbial activity against an array of pathogenic fungi and bacteria. A total of 55 …

Artemisinin is the most practical medication for the treatment of malaria, but is only very
minimally synthesized in Artemisia annua, significantly less than the market needs. In this …

Endophytic actinobacteria aid in plant development and disease resistance by boosting
nutrient uptake or producing secondary metabolites. For the first time, we investigated the …
