Implication

Research reveals that fungal endophytes exhibit antagonistic activity against Colletotrichum capsici in chilli, suggesting a potential solution to anthracnose disease.

Key Points

Endophyte UHSFS5 shows significant inhibition of Colletotrichum capsici, achieving 74.68% mycelial inhibition.
Nineteen fungal isolates from chilli demonstrated antagonistic activity in dual culture assays under in vitro conditions.
Study involved cultural and morphological characterization, identifying UHSFS5 as belonging to the Aspergillus genus.
Findings support the potential use of endophytes to address chilli anthracnose disease, highlighting the need for further field validation.
