Abstract
Pathogens are developing resistance against the current regime of drugs, which urge the need of novel drugs. This has led scientists to explore natural sources that are safe as well as potent. Microbes have been explored for over decades for natural products and have been the vast reservoir of secondary metabolites of drugs potential. Because of their huge diversity and particular habituation, they can act as good resource to obtain bioactive secondary metabolites. Endophytes have been exploited to get drug-like molecules that have antibacterial, antifungal, anticancer, antioxidant, antidiabetic, antileishmaniasis, and antiviral activities. Here we review endophytic fungi as storehouse of naturally occurring bioactive secondary metabolites.
