Metabolites from freshwater aquatic microalgae and fungi as potential natural pesticides

Microorganisms are recognized worldwide as the major source of secondary metabolites with mega diverse structures and promissory biological activities. However, as yet many of them remain little or under-explored like the microbiota from freshwater aquatic ecosystems. In the present review, we under...

Summary:Microorganisms are recognized worldwide as the major source of secondary metabolites with mega diverse structures and promissory biological activities. However, as yet many of them remain little or under-explored like the microbiota from freshwater aquatic ecosystems. In the present review, we undertook a recompilation of metabolites reported with pesticidal properties from microalgae (cyanobacteria and green algae) and fungi, specifically from freshwater aquatic habitats.
