Summary: | Algae, bacteria, and fungi, as well as higher plants, produce a wide variety of secondary metabolites known as natural products. Natural products are well known as remarkable sources of many therapeutic agents. The genus
is a wood-decaying fungus that belongs to family Xylariaceae.
is often found as an endophyte in diverse hosts and some species are known to produce useful secondary metabolites. In this study, two
species were isolated as an endophytic fungus from
. Multi-gene phylogenetic studies showed that the newly described strains of
are new to science, and this is the first report of
from the host
. One of the fermented species,
(KUMCC 20-0268), resulted in five sesquiterpenoids, which were previously reported from agarwood, and their structures were identified by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). In addition, five different media were investigated in vitro to optimize conditions for growing the fungal biomass of
and
