OBJECTIVE
The aim of this study is to isolate and identify an endophytic fungus with antibacterial activity from the Asian medicinal and culinary plant Lilium lancifolium and to study the characteristics of its major antibacterial fractions.
RESULTS
After strict sample sterilization, an endophytic
Two heteropolysaccharides, BHP-1 and BHP-2, were separated and purified from the edible bulbs of Lilium davidii var. unicolor Cotton by anion-exchange and gel-permeation chromatography. The primary structural characteristics of BHP-1 and BHP-2 were investigated by Congo red test, X-ray
Antifungal proteins (AFPs) offer a great potential as new biofungicides to control deleterious fungi. The phytopathogenic fungus Penicillium expansum encodes three phylogenetically distinct AFPs, PeAfpA, PeAfpB and PeAfpC. Here, PeAfpA, a potent in vitro self-inhibitory protein, was demonstrated to
Genus Lilium plants contain a variety of steroidal saponins, so far at least 82 steroidal saponins have been found in the bulbs of Lilium species, including 13 spirostanol saponins (1-13), 39 isospirostanol saponins (14-52), 7 pseudospirostanol saponins (53-59), and 23 furostanol saponins (60-82).
