From genomics to metabolomics, moving toward an integrated strategy for the discovery of fungal secondary metabolites

Abstract excerpt

Fungal secondary metabolites are defined by bioactive properties that ensure adaptation of the fungus to its environment. Although some of these natural products are promising sources of new lead compounds especially for the pharmaceutical industry, others pose risks to human and animal health. The identification of secondary metabolites is critical to assessing both the utility and risks of these compounds....
