Abstract
Postharvest harmful pathogenic infestation leads to rapid decay in longan fruit. Compared with P. longanae-infected longans, AEOW alleviated fruit disease severity and diminished the O2-. production rate and MDA content. It also increased APX, CAT, and SOD activities, delayed the decrease in the levels of GSH and AsA, as well as the reducing power and DPPH radical scavenging ability, which resulted in a decline in membrane lipid peroxidation in P. longanae-infected longans. Additionally, AEOW reduced LOX, lipase, PI-PLC, PC-PLC, and PLD activities, maintained higher levels of PC, PI, IUFA, USFAs, and U/S, while reducing levels of PA, DAG, SFAs, and CMP. These effects alleviated membrane lipid degradation and peroxidation in P. longanae-infected longans. Consequently, AEOW effectively maintained membrane integrity via improving antioxidant capacity and suppressing membrane lipid peroxidation. This comprehensive coordination of ROS and membrane lipid metabolisms improved fruit resistance and delayed disease development in longans.

Abstract
This study investigated the chemical composition and the antifungal activity of the essential oil extracted from the Hymenaea stigonocarpa fruit peel (HSFPEO) against Botrytis cinerea, Sclerotinia sclerotiorum, Aspergillus flavus and Colletotrichum truncatum. The HSFPEO obtained through hydrodistillation was analyzed with gas chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry. The antifungal activity was determined by the mean mycelial growth inhibition of the fungus treated with essential oils and growth control. The major constituents of HSFPEO were spathulenol (25.19%) and caryophyllene oxide (13.33%). HSFPEO demonstrated antifungal activity against all fungi tested in all concentrations evaluated in a dose-dependent behavior. The best results were observed against B. cinerea and A. flavus, in which the lowest concentration tested inhibited more than 70% of mycelial growth. Based on the current knowledge, this study describes for the first time the chemical composition and the antifungal activity of HSFPEO against the phytopathogenic fungi B. cinerea and C. truncatum.

Abstract
Some truffles are expensive and, therefore, are prone to food fraud. A particular problem is the differentiation of high-priced Tuber magnatum truffles from cheaper Tuber borchii truffles, both of which are white truffles with similar morphological characteristics. Using an untargeted approach, the volatiles isolated from samples of both species were screened for potential marker compounds by comprehensive two-dimensional gas chromatography-time-of-flight mass spectrometry (GC×GC-TOFMS) and statistical analysis of the obtained semiquantitative data. Results suggested bis(methylsulfanyl)methane and furan-2(5H)-one as compounds characterizing T. magnatum and T. borchii, respectively. Exact quantitation of both volatiles by conventional one-dimensional gas chromatography-mass spectrometry in combination with stable isotopologues of the target compounds as internal standards confirmed both as marker compounds. The method is suitable to be used in the routine analysis for the objective species differentiation of T. magnatum and T. borchii.

Abstract
Eight previously undescribed chromones eleusineketones A-H (1-8), as well as eight known compounds (9-16), were isolated from the endophytic fungus Bipolaris eleusines. These planar structures were created using an in-depth analysis of their spectral data, which included 1D, 2D, and HRESIMS data. Furthermore, the absolute configurations of compounds 1, 2, and 6 were determined by spectroscopic analysis and quantum chemical computational approaches, and compound 5 was determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. The cytotoxic activity assay revealed that compounds 1 and 5 both inhibited MDA-MB-231 cells with IC50 values of 14.48 μM and 17.99 μM, respectively.

Abstract
Proteomics has been used extensively in the field of mycology, mainly in trying to understand the complex network of protein-protein interactions that has been implicated in the molecular functions of fungi. It is also a useful tool to compare metabolic differences within a genus. Species of Pseudogymnoascus, a genus under the phyla Ascomycota, have been shown to play an important role in the soil environment. They have been found in both polar and temperate regions and are a known producer of many extracellular hydrolases that contribute to soil decomposition. Despite the apparent importance of Pseudogymnoascus spp. in the soil ecosystem, investigations into their molecular functions are still very limited. In the present study, proteomic characterization of six Pseudogymnoascus spp. isolated from three biogeographic regions (the Arctic, Antarctic, and temperate regions) was carried out using tandem mass spectrometry. Prior to proteomic analysis, the optimization for protein extraction was carried out. Trichloroacetic acid‑acetone‑phenol was found to be the best extraction method to be used for proteomic profiling of Pseudogymnoascus spp. The proteomic analysis identified 2003 proteins that were successfully mapped to the UniProtKB database. The identified proteins were clustered according to their biological processes and molecular functions. The shared proteins found in all Pseudogymnoascus spp. (1201 proteins) showed a significantly close relationship in their basic cellular functions, despite differences in morphological structures. Analysis of Pseudogymnoascus spp. proteome also identified proteins that were unique to each region. However, a high number of these proteins belonged to protein families of similar molecular functions, namely, transferases and hydrolases. Our proteomic data can be used as a reference for Pseudogymnoascus spp. across different global regions and a foundation for future soil ecosystem function research.

Abstract
In the search for novel succinate dehydrogenase inhibitor (SDHI) fungicides to control Rhizoctonia solani, thirty-five novel pyrazole-4-carboxamides bearing either an oxime ether or an oxime ester group were designed and prepared based on the strategy of molecular hybridization, and their antifungal activities against five plant pathogenic fungi were also investigated. The results indicated that the majority of the compounds containing oxime ether demonstrated outstanding in vitro antifungal activity against R. solani, and some compounds also displayed pronounced antifungal activities against Sclerotinia sclerotiorum and Botrytis cinerea. Particularly, compound 5e exhibited the most promising antifungal activity against R. solani with an EC50 value of 0.039 μg/mL, which was about 20-fold better than that of boscalid (EC50 = 0.799 μg/mL) and 4-fold more potent than fluxapyroxad (EC50 = 0.131 μg/mL). Moreover, the results of the detached leaf assay showed that compound 5e could suppress the growth of R. solani in rice leaves with significant protective efficacies (86.8%) at 100 μg/mL, superior to boscalid (68.1%) and fluxapyroxad (80.6%), indicating promising application prospects. In addition, the succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) enzymatic inhibition assay revealed that compound 5e generated remarkable SDH inhibition (IC50 = 2.04 μM), which was obviously more potent than those of boscalid (IC50 = 7.92 μM) and fluxapyroxad (IC50 = 6.15 μM). Furthermore, SEM analysis showed that compound 5e caused a remarkable disruption to the characteristic structure and morphology of R. solani hyphae, resulting in significant damage. The molecular docking analysis demonstrated that compound 5e could fit into the identical binding pocket of SDH through hydrogen bond interactions as well as fluxapyroxad, indicating that they had a similar antifungal mechanism. The density functional theory and electrostatic potential calculations provided useful information regarding electron distribution and electron transfer, which contributed to understanding the structural features and antifungal mechanism of the lead compound. These findings suggested that compound 5e could be a promising candidate for SDHI fungicides to control R. solani, warranting further investigation.

Abstract
Paraphaeoketones A-C (1-3) were isolated from the culture broth of Paraphaeosphaeria sp. KT4192. Their structures and relative configurations were determined using spectroscopic analysis and verified through density functional theory (DFT)-based chemical shift calculations. The absolute configurations of these compounds were determined by comparing the experimental electronic circular dichroism (ECD) spectra with those based on DFT calculations. We also propose a plausible biosynthetic route to 1-3. While our prior studies on the isolation and structural elucidation of paraphaeolactones (e.g., 4) led us to suggest a Favorskii rearrangement for their biosynthesis, the isolation of 2 prompted the proposal of an alternative biosynthesis for 4, featuring a benzilic acid rearrangement of 2. Moreover, an in vitro conversion of 2 into 4 was achieved successfully, suggesting that a biosynthetic pathway for paraphaeolactones involving a benzilic acid rearrangement is more plausible than the previously presumed Favorskii rearrangement pathway. Arguments based on DFT calculations for these pathways are also described.

Abstract
Two α-pyrone analogs were isolated from the endophytic fungus Diaporthe sp. CB10100, which is derived from the medicinal plant Sinomenium acutum. These analogs included a new compound, diaporpyrone F (3), and a known compound, diaporpyrone D (4). The structure of 3 was identified by a comprehensive examination of HRESIMS, 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopic data. Bioinformatics analysis revealed that biosynthetic gene clusters for α-pyrone analogs are common in fungi of Diaporthe species. The in vitro α-glucosidase inhibitory activity and antibacterial assay of 4 revealed that it has a 46.40% inhibitory effect on α-glucosidase at 800 μM, while no antibacterial activity against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), Mycolicibacterium (Mycobacterium) smegmatis or Klebsiella pneumoniae at 64 μg/mL. Molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulations of 4 with α-glucosidase further suggested that the compounds are potential α-glucosidase inhibitors. Therefore, α-pyrone analogs can be used as lead compounds for α-glucosidase inhibitors in more in-depth studies.

Abstract
Chemical prospection of an extract derived from a saprotrophic fungus Lachnum sp. IW157 resulted in the isolation and characterization of six unprecedentedly reported ambuic acid analogues named lachnuoic acids A-F (1-6). Chemical structures of 1-6 were determined based on comprehensive 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopic analyses together with HR-ESI-MS spectrometry. The relative configurations of 1-3 were defined by ROESY spectroscopic analyses while their absolute configurations were unambiguously determined by Mosher's esters method. All isolated compounds were subjected to cytotoxic, antimicrobial, antibiofilm and nematicidal activity assays where only lachnuoic acid A (1) revealed potent antimicrobial activity against Staphylococcus aureus and Bacillus subtilis at MIC values of 16.6 and 8.3 μg/mL, respectively.

Abstract
A comprehensive chemical study of the endophytic fungus Arthrinium sp. ZS03, associated with Acorus tatarinowii Schott, yielded eleven pimarane diterpenoids (compounds 1-11), including seven novel compounds designated arthrinoids A-G (1-7). The determination of their structures and absolute configurations was achieved through extensive spectroscopic techniques, quantum chemical calculations of electronic circular dichroism (ECD), and single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. Furthermore, 7 demonstrated inhibitory activity against Klebsiella pneumoniae, comparable to the reference antibiotic amikacin, with a minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of 8 μg·mL-1.

Abstract
Morels (Morchella spp.), which are cultivated only in a few regions of the world, are edible mushrooms known for their various properties including antioxidation, immune regulation, antiinflammation, and antitumor effects. Polysaccharides from Morchella are principally responsible for its antioxidant activity. This paper reviews the extraction, purification, structural analysis and antioxidant activity of Morchella polysaccharides (MPs), providing updated research progress. Meanwhile, the structural-property relationships of MPs were further discussed. In addition, based on in vitro and in vivo studies, the major factors responsible for the antioxidant activity of MPs were summarized including scavenging free radicals, reduction capacity, inhibitory lipid peroxidation activity, regulating the signal transduction pathway, reducing the production of ROS and NO, etc. Finally, we hope that our research can provide a reference for further research and development of MPs.

Abstract
Curcumin is a multitargeting nutraceutical with numerous health benefits, however, its efficacy is limited due to poor aqueous solubility and reduced bioavailability. While nano-formulation has emerged as an alternative to encounter such issues, it often involves use of toxic solvents. Microbial synthesis may be an innovative solution to address this lacuna. Present study, for the first time, reports exploitation of Aureobasidium pullulans RBF4A3 for production of nano-curcumin. For this purpose, Aureobasidium pullulans RBF4A3 was inoculated in YPD media along with curcumin (0.1 mg/mL) and incubated for 24 h, 48 h, and 72 h. Subsequently, residual sugar, biomass, EPS concentration, curcumin concentration, and curcumin nanoparticle size were measured. As a result, nano-curcumin with an average particle size of 31.63 nm and enhanced aqueous solubility was obtained after 72 h. Further, investigations suggested that pullulan, a reducing polysaccharide, played a significant role in curcumin nano-formulation. Pullulan-mediated nano-curcumin formulation, with an average particle size of 24 nm was achieved with conversion rate of around 59.19 %, suggesting improved aqueous solubility. Additionally, the anti-oxidant assay of the resulting nano-curcumin was around 53.7 % per μg. Moreover, kinetics and thermodynamic studies of pullulan-based nano-curcumin revealed that it followed first-order kinetics and was favored by elevated temperature for efficient bio-conversion. Also, various physico-chemical investigations like FT-IR, NMR, and XRD reveal that pullulan backbone remains intact while forming curcumin nanoparticle. This study may open up new avenues for synthesizing nano-polyphenols through a completely green and solvent free process with plausible diverse applications.

Abstract
Endolichenic fungi are expecting for new bioresources of pharmacological compounds. However, the number of investigations targeting antioxidant compounds produced by endolichenic fungi remains limited. To discover new antioxidant compounds, we analyzed the antioxidant activity of the methanol extracts derived from isolated lichen mycobionts or endolichenic fungi induced from Pyxine subcinerea. We performed this analysis using the oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC) method. As a result, we isolated from an endolichenic fungus identified as Penicillium sp.-stain 1322P in Pyxine subcinerea. This fungus produced a red pigment, and its chemical structure was determined to be sclerotioramine based on the analytical data obtained from NMR, LC-MS/MS, and HPLC-PDA. Sclerotioramine exhibited high antioxidant activity, and the ORAC values (mean ± SD) of sclerotioramine and sclerotiorin were 11.4 ± 0.36 and 4.86 ± 0.70 mmol TE per gram of the respective pure compound. Thus, the antioxidant activity of sclerotioramine was greater than twice that of sclerotiorin. This work represents the first report that the antioxidant activity of sclerotioramine is higher than that of the sclerotiorin.

Abstract
Two new compounds eutyditerpenoid A (1) and seco-phenochalasin B (5), together with seven known compounds diaporthein A (2), aspergillon A (3), phenochalasin B (4), cytochalasins Z24 and Z25 (6 and 7), scoparasins A and B (8 and 9) were isolated from marine-derived Eutypella scoparia GZU-4-19Y. Among them, eutyditerpenoid A (1) with a rare 6/7/6 ring system possesing an anhydride moiety was the first example in the pimarane-type diterpenoids. Their structures were determined based on spectroscopic methods and the electronic circular dichroism (ECD) calculations. In the bioassays, all of the isolates were evaluated for their inhibitory activity against NO production induced by lipopolysaccharide in RAW 264.7 cells. Compounds 3 and 7 showed potent NO inhibition activity with IC50 values of 2.1 and 17.1 μM respectively, and the former also significantly suppressed the protein expression of iNOS and COX-2 at the concentration of 2.5 μM.

Abstract
In this study, preliminary field-sampling of bioactive fungal strains and bioassay-guided selection were conducted. A number of fungal strains were isolated from sea anemones along the northeastern coast of Badouzi, Keelung, Taiwan. Among them, Arthrinium arundinis MA30 showed significant anti-inflammatory activity and was thus selected for further chemical investigation. After a series of purification and isolation using different chromatographic techniques on the fermented products of A. arundinis MA30, thirty-one compounds were identified, five of which were previously unreported, including arthrinoic acid, hexylaconitic anhydride methyl ester, (3S,8R)-8-hydroxy-3-carboxy-2-methylenenonanoic acid, and arthripenoids G and H. These compounds were subjected to comprehensive spectroscopic data analysis. Of all the isolates, 1,3,5,6-tetrahydroxy-8-methylxanthone and arthripenoid C demonstrated the most distinctive inhibitory activities against nitric oxide production in mouse microglial BV-2 cells, with their respective inhibitory rates being 71% and 81% at 10 μM concentration, and their respective IC50 values were further determined to be 5.3 ± 0.6 and 1.6 ± 0.4 μM. These compounds showed no significant cytotoxicity, and curcumin was used as a positive control in this study.

Abstract
Chemical exploration of the total extract derived from Epicoccum nigrum Ann-B-2, an endophyte associated with Annona squamosa fruits, afforded two new metabolites, epicoccofuran A (1) and flavimycin C (2), along with four known compounds namely, epicocconigrone A (3), epicoccolide B (4), epicoccone (5) and 4,5,6-trihydroxy-7-methyl-1,3-dihydroisobenzofuran (6). Structures of the isolated compounds were elucidated using extensive 1D and 2D NMR along with HR-ESI-MS. Flavimycin C (2) was isolated as an epimeric mixture of its two diastereomers 2a and 2b. The new compounds 1 and 2 displayed moderate activity against B. subtilis, whereas compounds (2, 3, 5, and 6) showed significant antiproliferative effects against a panel of seven different cancer cell lines with IC50 values ranging from 1.3 to 12 µM.

Abstract
Chronic inflammation plays a crucial role in the development and progression of numerous chronic diseases. To search for anti-inflammatory metabolites from endophytic fungi isolated from plants growing in Thai mangrove areas, a chemical investigation of those fungi was performed. Five new oxygenated isocoumarins, setosphamarins A-E (1-5) were isolated from the EtOAc extract of an endophytic fungus Setosphaeria rostrata, along with four known isocoumarins and one xanthone. Their structures were determined by extensive spectroscopic analysis. The absolute configurations of the undescribed compounds were established by comparative analysis between experimental and calculated circular dichroism (ECD) spectroscopy. All the compounds were evaluated for their anti-inflammatory activity by monitoring nitric oxide inhibition in lipopolysaccharide-induced macrophage J774A.1 cells. Only a xanthone, ravenelin (9), showed potent activity, with an IC50 value of 6.27 μM, and detailed mechanistic study showed that it suppressed iNOS and COX-2 expression.

Abstract
The use of natural dyes in several areas is regulated by current European and non-European legislation, due to various problems with synthetic dyes. The analysis revealed that the lichen studied: Xanthoria parietina has potential natural dye sources and provides bright colors for extraction solvents. Furthermore, dyed wool and toile fabric have good fastness properties in ammonia fermentation and boiling water, both with and without mordants. The sample dyes with Xanthoria parietina were characterized by several analytical techniques: high-performance liquid chromatography with diode array detection (HPLC-DAD) and electrospray ionization with tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-ESI-Q-ToF). As compounds from Xanthoria parietina form a complex with mordants and tissues, it is impossible to identify the molecules responsible for coloring using chromatographic techniques. However, we have evaluated the dyeing power of their major molecule, parietin. To further confirm the coloring power of the isolated parietin molecule, we performed a dye test with pure parietin. Thus, CIALAB analyses have shown parietin is the molecule responsible for the coloring obtained by Xanthoria parietina. The utilization of parietin derived from lichens facilitates the development of sustainable dyes for textile coloring, presenting an environmentally friendly alternative to synthetic dyes while simultaneously enriching lichen biodiversity.

Abstract
Motivated by the potential anti-inflammatory effect of the crude extract of endophytic fungus Microdiplodia sp. CJ01 derived from Camellia sinensis, chemical investigation of the extract of Microdiplodia sp. CJ01 led to the isolation and identification of sixteen terpenoids, including five undescribed eremophilane sesquiterpenoids named microdiplodins A-E (1-5), one undescribed meroterpenoid 13-carboxymacrophorin A (13), seven known eremophilane sesquiterpenoids (6-12), and three known meroterpenoids (14-16). The structures of these compounds were elucidated based on extensive spectroscopic analysis, including nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and high-resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS) data. Their absolute configurations were determined by calculational and experimental electronic circular dichroism (ECD) data. Anti-inflammatory activity assays revealed that compounds 3, 4, 14-16 exhibited moderate inhibitory effects on the production of nitric oxide (NO) in the lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced RAW 264.7 macrophage cells.

Abstract
Natural product reisolation is a bottleneck when discovering new bioactive chemical entities from nature. To overcome this issue, multi-informative approaches integrating several layers of data have been applied with promising results. In this study, integration of taxonomy, nontargeted metabolomics, and bioactivity information resulted in the selection of Scytalidium sp. IQ-074 and Diaporthe sp. IQ-053 to isolate new natural products active against hPTP1B1-400 and repurpose others as antibiotics. Strain IQ-074 was selected based on the hypothesis that investigating poorly studied and highly metabolic taxa could lead to the isolation of new chemical entities. A chemical investigation of IQ-074 resulted in the isolation of papyracillic acid A (14), 7-deoxypapyracillic acid A (15a and 15b), and linear polyketides scytalpolyols A-D (16-19). Compound 17 inhibited hPTP1B1-400 with a half-maximal inhibitory concentration of 27.0 ± 1.7 μM. Diaporthe sp. IQ-053 was selected based on its antibacterial properties against pathogenic strains. Its chemical investigation yielded dothiorelones A (20) and I (21), cytosporones B (22) and C (23), pestalotiopsone B (24), and diaporthalasin (25). Compounds 22 and 25 inhibited the growth of Staphylococcus aureus and Staphylococcus epidermidis 42R and moderately inhibited the growth of Acinetobacter baumannii A564, a pandrug-resistant bacterium.

Abstract
Black truffle (Tuber melanosporum) is one of the most appreciated fungi in the world mainly due to its aromatic properties. In the emerging markets such as Argentina, the aroma of locally produced truffles has not been described yet. The volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from 102 black truffles from Argentina were analyzed using solid phase microextraction gas chromatography coupled with mass spectrometer detector (SPME-GC-MS). Several factors such as commercial category, maturity stage, host tree, geographical origin, and aromatic defects detected during classification were also registered and considered. As a result, 79 VOCs were detected, among which 2-methyl-propanal, 2-butanone, 2-methyl-1-propanol, butanal-3-methyl, 3-methyl-1-butanol, 2-methyl-1-butanol were present in high percentage in fresh mature truffles, whereas immature truffles were associated with 3,5-dimethoxytoluene, 2-phenyl-2-butenal, 2,3-dimethoxytoluene. The Argentine black truffles showed significant similarities in their aromatic profile when compared with their Australian and European counterparts, but with some distinctive notes.

Abstract
Endophytic fungi are a significant source of secondary metabolites, which are chemical compounds with biological activities. The present study emphasizes the first-time isolation and identification of such fungi and their pharmacological activities from the medicinal plant Cordia dichotoma, which is native to Jammu, India. The Shannon Wiener diversity index revealed a wide range of fungal endophytes in root (1.992), stem (1.645), and leaf (1.46) tissues. A total of 19 endophytic fungi belonging to nine different genera were isolated from this plant and the majority belonged to the Ascomycota phylum. ITS rRNA gene sequencing was used to identify the fungal strains and they were submitted in NCBI GenBank. The most potent fungal isolate Cladosporium cladosporioides OP870014 had strong antimicrobial, antioxidant, and anticancer activity against MCF-7, HCT-116, and PC-3 cancer cell lines. The LC-MS and GC-MS analyses of the ethyl acetate extract of C. cladosporioides were examined to identify the bioactive metabolites. The major compounds of the crude extract derived from C. cladosporioides OP870014, according to GC-MS, are spiculisporic acid; dibutyl phthalate; phenylethyl alcohol; cyclohexanone, 2,3,3-trimethyl-2-3-methylbutyl; pyrrolo[1,2-a]pyrazine-1,4-dione,hexahydro-3-(phenylmethyl);2,5-piperazinedione,3,6-bis(2-methylpropyl); and heneicosane which possessed antimicrobial, anticancerous, and antioxidant activities. The findings revealed that C. dichotoma has the capacity to host a wide variety of fungal endophytes and that secondary metabolites from the endophytic fungus may be a source of alternative naturally occurring antimicrobial, antioxidant, and cytotoxic compounds.

Abstract
Three new tetronic acid derivatives, nodulisporacid A ethyl ester (3), isosporothric acid methyl ester (4), and (R)-3-(methoxycarbonyl)-2-methyleneundecanoic acid (5) were isolated from mangrove endophytic fungus Hypomontagnella monticulosa YX702, together with three known analogues nodulisporacid A (1), nodulisporacid A methyl ester (2), and dihydrosporothriolide (6). The structures of these new compounds were elucidated by analysis of NMR and HR-ESI-MS spectroscopic data. In addition, the absolute configuration of nodulisporacid A (1) was confirmed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction for the first time. Subsequently, the absolute configuration of compounds 2 and 3 were determined by chemical derivatization of nodulisporacid A (1). The absolute configuration of compound 4 and 5 were established by TDDFT ECD calculations. Compounds 1 and 2 exhibited cytotoxic activities against A549 and Hela cancer cell lines with the IC50 values between 5.64 and 8.14 μM.

Abstract
Tn7-like transposons have co-opted CRISPR-Cas systems to facilitate the movement of their own DNA. These CRISPR-associated transposons (CASTs) are promising tools for programmable gene knockin. A key feature of CASTs is their ability to recruit Tn7-like transposons to nuclease-deficient CRISPR effectors. However, how Tn7-like transposons are recruited by diverse CRISPR effectors remains poorly understood. Here, we present the cryo-EM structure of a recruitment complex comprising the Cascade complex, TniQ, TnsC, and the target DNA in the type I-B CAST from Peltigera membranacea cyanobiont 210A. Target DNA recognition by Cascade induces conformational changes in Cas6 and primes TniQ recruitment through its C-terminal domain. The N-terminal domain of TniQ is bound to the seam region of the TnsC spiral heptamer. Our findings provide insights into the diverse mechanisms for the recruitment of Tn7-like transposons to CRISPR effectors and will aid in the development of CASTs as gene knockin tools.

Abstract
Metabolomics analyses and improvement of growth conditions were applied toward diversification of phomactin terpenoids by the fungus Biatriospora sp. CBMAI 1333. Visualization of molecular networking results on Gephi assisted the observation of phomactin diversification and guided the isolation of new phomactin variants by applying a modified version of chemometrics based on a fractional factorial design. Consequentially, the first nitrogen-bearing phomactin, phomactinine (1), with a new rearranged carbon skeleton, was isolated and identified. The strategy combining metabolomics and chemometrics can be extended to include bioassay potency, structure novelty, and metabolic diversification connected or not to genomic analyses.

Abstract
Microorganisms in specific environments are rich sources of bioactive natural products as they produce compounds that can aid their survival in harsh environments. In an effort to investigate antifungal compounds produced by microorganisms, the fungal strain Paraphoma radicia FB55, isolated from a marine sediment of the Beaufort Sea, north of Alaska, was subjected to chemical investigation. Chromatography of the culture extracts yielded two new compounds (1 and 2) and eight known compounds (3-10). Their structures were determined using spectroscopic and chemical methods. Compound 1 was a new analog of the known compound (3) with an isobenzofuranone skeleton. The absolute configuration of the chiral center in 1 was established by comparison of its ECD and specific rotation values with those for a known analogue. Compound 2 is a polyketide-amino acid hybrid. Comprehensive Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) analysis indicated that 2 consisted of two substructures:5-methyl-6-oxo-2,4-heptadienoic acid and isoleucinol. The absolute configuration of the isoleucinol moiety in 2 was determined to be D using Marfey's method. All the isolated compounds were evaluated for antifungal activities. Although the antifungal activity of the isolated compounds was not potent, co-treatment of compounds 7 and 8 with a clinically available amphotericin B (AmB) lowered the IC50 values of AmB by synergism against human pathogenic yeast.

Abstract
Seven new polyketides, diphenyl ketone (1), diphenyl ketone glycosides (2-4), diphenyl ketone-diphenyl ether dimer (6), and anthraquinone-diphenyl ketone dimers (7 and 8), together with compound 5, were isolated from the psychrophilic fungus Pseudogymnoascus sp. OUCMDZ-3578 fermented at 16 °C and identified by spectroscopic analysis. The absolute configurations of 2-4 were determined by acid hydrolysis and 1-phenyl-3-methyl-5-pyrazolone precolumn derivatization. The configuration of 5 was first determined by X-ray diffraction analysis. Compounds 6 and 8 showed the highest activity against amyloid beta (Aβ42) aggregation with half-maximal inhibitory concentrations (IC50) of 0.10 and 0.18 μM, respectively. They also showed strong abilities to chelate with metal ions, especially iron, were sensitive to Aβ42 aggregation induced by metal ions, and displayed depolymerizing activity. Compounds 6 and 8 show potential as leads for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease to prevent Aβ42 aggregation.

Abstract
Endophytic fungi possess a versatile metabolism which is related to their ability to live in diverse ecological niches. While culturing under laboratory conditions, their metabolism is mainly influenced by the culture media, time of incubation and other physicochemical factors. In this study, we focused on the production of 3 thiodiketopiperazines (TDKPs) botryosulfuranols A-C produced by an endophytic strain of Cophinforma mamane isolated from the leaves of Bixa orellana L collected in the Peruvian Amazon. We studied the time-course production of botryosulfuranols A-C during 28 days and evaluated the variations in the production of secondary metabolites, including the TDKPs, produced by C. mamane in response to different culture media, light versus dark conditions and different incubation times. We observed a short time-frame production of botryosulfuranol C while its production was significantly affected by the light conditions and nutrients of the culture media. Botryosulfuranols A and B showed a similar production pattern and a similar response to culturing conditions. Molecular networking allowed us to detect three compounds related to TDKPs that will be the focus of future experiments.

Abstract
Altersteroids A-D (1-4), four new 9,11-secosteroid-derived γ-lactones, were isolated from cultures of the ascomycete fungus Alternaria sp. Their structures were elucidated primarily by NMR experiments. The absolute configuration of 1 was established by X-ray crystallographic analysis of its di-p-nitrobenzenesulfonate 1a using Cu Kα radiation, whereas those for 2-4 were assigned by quantum-chemical calculations. Compounds 1-4 incorporate a γ-lactone moiety fused to the steroid D ring at C-13/C-14. Compound 3 showed moderate cytotoxicity toward four tumor cell lines and induced an apoptotic process in A549 cells. Notably, compound 3 showed equipotent activity against the cisplatin-sensitive MB49 and -resistant MB49 CisR cells, with an IC50 value of 12.7 μM.

Abstract
Phaeosphaeria sp., a lichen-associated fungus, produced six skeletally new dimeric spiciferones (1-6) and four known metabolites (7-10). The new structures were elucidated by spectroscopic analysis, and their absolute configurations were determined by electronic circular dichroism calculations. Compounds 1 and 3-6 represent the first examples of ethylidene-bridged dimers from the building blocks 4H-chromene-4,7(8H)-dione and α-pyrone, and 2 is a unique homodimer of spiciferone. Compounds 1, 2, and 5-9 significantly inhibited the growth of weed-like dicot Arabidopsis thaliana at 100.0 μM. Notably, 8 showed the strongest inhibitory activity against the fresh weight and root elongation of A. thaliana with the IC50 values of 32.04 and 26.78 μM, respectively, whereas 1, 8, and 9 stimulated the growth of A. thaliana at lower concentrations. Meanwhile, compounds 2 and 6 exhibited weak inhibitory effects on the root elongation of monocot rice, while 1 and 8 exhibited growth-promoting effects on the shoot and root elongation of rice in a roughly dose-dependent manner.

Abstract
Fungi belonging to the genus Tuber produce edible ascocarps known as truffles. Tuber magnatum Picco may be the most appreciated truffle species given its peculiar aroma. While its life cycle is not yet fully elucidated, some studies demonstrated an active role of microorganisms. The main goal of this study was to determine how the T. magnatum microbiome varies across space and time. To address this, we characterized microbial communities associated with T. magnatum through high-throughput amplicon sequencing of internal transcribed spacer (ITS) and 16S rDNAs in three productive natural sites in Italy across 2 years. At each site, four truffles were sampled as well as the soil underneath and at 40, 100, and 200 cm from the harvesting points, to assess for microbial variation between substrates, years, and sites. A statistically significant site-related effect on microbial communities was identified, whereas only the prokaryotic community was significantly affected by the distance of soil from the truffle. Significant differences between sampling years were also found, demonstrating a possible relation among rainfall precipitation and Firmicutes and Actinobacteria. Thirty-six bacterial OTUs in truffles and 11 bacterial OTUs in soils beneath truffles were identified as indicator taxa. As shown for other truffle species, the dominance of Bradyrhizobium, Rhizobium, and Ensifer spp. within the truffle fruiting body suggests an evolutionary adaptation of this microorganism to the genus Tuber. The present work offers novel and relevant insights into the microbial ecology of T. magnatum ecosystems and fruiting bodies. The function and role of these bacteria in the truffle microbiome and life cycle are in need of further investigation.

Abstract
The fungus Pseudopestalotiopsis theae isolated from the fresh leaves of Illigera celebica, has been reported to be a pathogenic fungus that can cause gray blight on tea leaves, a disease characterized by the appearance of necrotic lesions on tea leaves. The pathogenic substances in this fungus have not been clearly identified. Considering the possible involvement of specialized metabolites in symptom appearance, a chemical investigation of specialized metabolites on P. theae was conducted, resulting in the isolation of eight meroterpenoids, including six undescribed biscognienynes G-L and two known ones (biscognienynes B and D). The structures of these new compounds were characterized by extensive NMR spectroscopic and HR-ESI-MS data, and their absolute configurations were elucidated by ECD calculations. Except for biscogniyne L, all the isolated biscognienynes showed different degrees of phytotoxicity to tea in vivo, thereby revealing for the first time the substances in P. theae that cause tea gray blight. Inspired by the fact that phytotoxins produced by pathogenic fungus are an effective resource for designing natural and safe bioherbicides, when assayed the herbicidal activity through Petri dish bioassays, biscognienynes G-J showed phytotoxic effects against seed germination and seedling growth of Setaria viridis, strongly inhibiting seed germination percentage and radicle and germ lengths of seedlings. The results of this study demonstrated the great potential of biscognienynes G-J to be proposed and developed as ecofriendly herbicides.

Abstract
Lasiodiplodiapyrones A and B (1 and 2), two new preussomerin derivatives, possessing an unexpected 6-methyl-4H-furo[3,2-c]pyran-4-one moiety and a highly functionalized conjoint and complicated polycyclic ring system, along with two known congeners (3 and 4), were isolated from the fungus Lasiodiplodia pseudotheobromae. Their structures including absolute configurations were determined by spectroscopic analyses, Mosher's method, and ECD calculations. A biosynthetic pathway was proposed to explain the origin of lasiodiplodiapyrones A and B as well as their relationship with preussomerins. Compounds 1-4 showed suppressive effects on the production of NO with IC50 values of 4.8 ± 0.3, 8.5 ± 1.1, 5.9 ± 0.8, and 12.8 ± 1.3 μM, respectively.

Abstract
Fungi from the genus Diaporthe have been reported as plant pathogens, endophytes, and saprophytes on a wide range of host plants worldwide. Their precise identification is problematic since many Diaporthe species can colonize a single host plant, whereas the same Diaporthe species can inhabit many hosts. Recently, Diaporthe has been proven to be a rich source of bioactive secondary metabolites. In our initial study, 40 Diaporthe isolates were analyzed for their metabolite production. A total of 153 compounds were identified based on their spectroscopic properties-Ultraviolet-visible and mass spectrometry. From these, 43 fungal metabolites were recognized as potential chemotaxonomic markers, mostly belonging to the drimane sesquiterpenoid-phthalide hybrid class. This group included mainly phytotoxic compounds such as cyclopaldic acid, altiloxin A, B, and their derivatives. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report on the metabolomic studies on Diaporthe eres species complex from fruit trees in the South-Eastern Poland. The results from our study may provide the basis for the future research on the isolation of identified metabolites and on their bioactive potential for agricultural applications as biopesticides or biofertilizers.

Abstract
Sixteen new polyketides, ophicirsins A-P (1-16), including four novel carbon skeletons (5-9, 14, 15, and 16), were isolated from the extract of an endophytic fungus Ophiobolus cirsii LZU-1509. The unique frameworks of ophicirsin N (14) and O (15) feature a different cyclic ether connected with an aromatic ring system. Ophicirsin P (16) is characterized by the unprecedented heterozygote of a polyketide and an alkaloid. The absolute stereochemistries of those polyketides were characterized via single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis and the experimental and computational electric circular dichroism spectra comparison. Theoretical reaction pathways in the fermentation to generate different novel skeletons starting from acetyl CoA and malonyl CoA helped to assign their structures. Compounds 1-16 appear almost nontoxic in HepG2 and HT-1080 tumor cells. Their antioxidant effects were further evaluated, and 15 exhibits an excellent protection activity in hydrogen peroxide-stimulated oxidative damage in neuron-like PC12 cells via screening all compounds. Moreover, 15 displays a greater ability to scavenge the 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl free radicals than resveratrol. Taken together, these findings suggest that the novel polyketides could serve as potential antioxidant agents for neuroprotection.

Abstract
Morel mushrooms, Morchella species are highly nutritional, excellently edible and medicinal. Anticancer activity of M. elata, growing in forests of Kashmir Himalaya was studied. Ethyl acetate extract of fruiting bodies of M. elata (MEAE) was evaluated for cytotoxicity by MTT assay using Daltons lymphoma ascites (DLA), human colon cancer (HCT-116) and normal cell lines. Anti-carcinogenic and antiangiogenic activities of MEAE were tested using mouse models. Proapoptotic activity was detected by double staining of acridine orange-ethidium bromide assay. MEAE was partially purified by column chromatography and the bioactive compounds were identified by LC-MS analysis. The bioactive extract of M. elata showed significant cytotoxicic activity against DLA (P < 0.05), HCT-116 cell lines (P < 0.05) and did not possess appreciable adverse effect on the viability of normal cells. At a concentration of 100 µg/mL, 60% cell death was observed in HCT-116 cell line while 80% cell death was found in DLA cell line. The extract also possessed profound anticarcinogenic, antiangiogenic and proapoptotic activities. LC-MS analysis showed celastrol (RT 9.504, C29H38O4, MW 450.27), convallatoxin (RT 9.60, C29H42O10, MW 550.27), cucurbitacin A (RT 11.97, C32H46O9, MW 574.71) and madecassic acid (RT 14.35, C30H48O6, MW 504.70) as the major bioactive components. Current experimental studies indicated that bioactive extract of M. elata possessed significant anticancer activity. Being an excellently edible mushroom, the potential therapeutic use of M. elata and its bioactive extract in complementary therapy of cancer is envisaged.

Abstract
Four new bisanthraquinones, dothideomins A-D (1-4), were identified from Dothideomycetes sp. BMC-101, an endophytic fungus isolated from Magnolia grandiflora L. leaves. Their chemical structures were established by NMR analysis, single-crystal X-ray crystallography, and ECD analysis. Dothideomins A-D (1-4) were characterized by an unusual 6/6/6/5/6/3/6/6 octocyclic scaffold (1 and 2) and a 6/6/6/5/6/6/6 heptacyclic scaffold (3 and 4), respectively. All compounds, especially 1 and 3, exhibited potent antibacterial activity with MIC values ranging from 0.4 to 0.8 μg/mL.
