Microbial Natural Products and Biosynthesis

Endophytic fungi are an important class of microorganisms, able to interact with a host plant via a mutualistic mechanism without visible symptoms of the fungal colonization. The synergy between endophytic fungi and their host plant can promote morphological, physiological and biochemical changes through the expression of bioactive metabolites. This work aims to correlate metabolic changes in the Combretum lanceolatum plant metabolome with its endophytic fungi Diaporthe phaseolorum (Dp) and Trichoderma spirale (Ts), and to discover corresponding metabolite-biomarkers, with the principal focus being on its primary metabolism. The 1 H-NMR metabolomic analysis of qualitative and quantitative changes was performed through multivariate statistical analysis and the identification of primary metabolites was achieved on the Madison Metabolomics Consortium Database. The presence of Dp significantly impacted the plant's metabolic pathways, improving the biosynthesis of primary metabolites such as threonine, malic acid and N-acetyl-mannosamine, which are precursors of special metabolites involved in plant self-defence. This work represents a valuable contribution to advanced studies on the metabolic profiles of the interaction of plants with endophytes.
