Chemical Composition and Antimicrobial Activity of the Volatile Oil from Fusarium tricinctum,the Endophytic Fungus in Paris polyphylla var. yunnanensis
The volatile oil, obtained by hydrodistillation from Fusarium tricinctum, the endophytic fungus isolated from Paris polyphylla var. yunnanensis, was analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). trans-1,2,3,3a,4,7a-Hexahydro-7a-methyl-5H-inden-5-one (73.1%), 2-methylene-4,8,8-trimethyl-4-vinyl bicyclo [5.2.0] nonane (12.0%), and 2,6-dimethyl-6-(4-methyl-3-pentenyl) bicyclo [3.1.1] hept-2-ene (4.5%) were the major compounds of the 15 identified components accounting for 95.4% of the volatile oil. The antimicrobial activity of the volatile oil was assayed against eight bacteria and two fungi. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values of the volatile oil against the test bacteria ranged from 25 to 45 μg/mL. The MIC values against the fungi Candida albicans and Magnaporthe oryzae were 100 and 225 μg/mL, respectively. The mean inhibitory concentration (IC50) values of the volatile oil against the test bacteria ranged from 17.8 to 31.6 μg/mL, and those of the volatile oil against C. albicans and M. oryzae were 84.3 and 204.3 μg/mL, respectively.
