Abstract | Santalum lanceolatum is a native Australian plant which has a history of prior use by the indigenous Australian population to treat infections. This project looks at the fungal endophytes present in Santalum lanceolatum and whether bioactive compounds from the endophytic fungi may be able to be used as antimicrobials. At this stage two sites in the Darling Downs region have been sampled with both sites producing a wide variety of endophytes from the plant tissue when grown on potato dextrose agar. One site has already been screened on Sensitest agar against ATCC type strains of Staphylococcus aureus, Serratia |
