| Abstract | ||||
| Reichardia tingitana is a glabrous annual herb growing wildly in the coastal and inland desert of Egypt. The current study intended to evaluate the biological potency, and characterize the chemical constitutes of the extracted Reichardia tingitana shoots by standared methods. In this study, thirteen species of endophytic fungi were isolated from the four parts of Reichardia tingitana and from the soil supporting the growth collected from different habitats (Delta coast and inland desert). A technique used by scientists to define the properties of a specific colony of fungus growing on agar in a Petri dish is called colony morphology. Different kinds of fungus will form colonies that appear different from one another; some colonies may be colored, while others may be irregularly shaped or round. Common colony kinds including colony hue, morphology, height, and colony edge are described using specialized language. | ||||
