Abstract
Endophytic fungi play an important role in the defense system of plants by secreting various antimicrobial agents. The present investigation reveals the isolation, molecular identification, phylogenetic analysis, and antibacterial studies of the endophytic fungi Calonectria indusiata in the leaves of Lobelia nicotianifolia Roth ex Schult. of Chikkamagaluru. The Calonectria indusiata was isolated and molecularly characterized by using ITS (ITS1 & ITS4) gene sequencing. The consensus sequence was submitted in NCBI GenBank and the analysis of the phylogenetic tree by using MEGA-X and Fig Tree software. The ethyl acetate extract of C. indusiata showing high antibacterial activity against all the tested bacteria.
