Phyllosticta capitalensis, a widespread endophyte of plants (2013, background): “It has been common practice to isolate endophytes from medicinal plants using the premise that strains will be isolated that can produce bioactive compounds similar to those produced by the plant (Krohn et al. 2007; Huang et al. 2008; Kumaran et al. 2008; Xu et al. 2010; Zhao et al. 2010).”
Phyllosticta—an overview of current status of species recognition (2011, background): “Taxol is produced by various fungal strains of Pestalotiopsis (Strobel et al. 1996, 1997), Phomopsis (Kumaran and Hur 2009) and Phyllosticta (Kumaran et al. 2008a, b, 2009a) in culture media under various conditions.”
