Most soil fungi are omnipresent and produce metabolites for their survival. These metabolites are of considerable significance to the service of humankind. Nevertheless, some of them are toxic and harmful. The significance of these secondary metabolites in pharmaceuticals, food, agriculture, and day-to-day life is well documented. Laboratory-synthesized metabolites are of limited access and have several limitations. However, fungi can play a greater role in the supply of metabolites. Fungal-derived products have been found to possess several useful pharmacological and medicinal properties. Some are antibiotic, hypocholesterolemic, anti-cancerous, and immunosuppressive, and are used in products such as pigments, sweeteners, fungal enzymes, and lectins. Presently, many fungi are a major component of a large number of industries and have enormous capacity for improving microbial products. Discovery of novel metabolites will help to secure our health against resistant microbial species responsible for causing deadly diseases. This chapter reviews current applications of metabolites of soil-borne fungi and their prospects. Not Available |
