which showed antimicrobial activity against Candida albicans with an MIC value
of 7.4 μg/cm
3 [50]. Two fungal strains, Dichotomomyces sp. L-8 and
Dichotomomyces cejpii F31-1, were obtained from the inner tissue of the soft coral
Lobophytum crassum collected from Hainan Sanya National Coral Reef Reserve.
The sea salt-containing GPY liquid fermentation of Dichotomomyces sp. yielded
dichotones A and B (110 and 111) [51]. By adding L-tryptophan and L-phenylalanine
to the GPY liquid medium fermentation of D. cejpii, dichocetide A (112) was
obtained [52].
The fungus Pestalotiopsis sp. ZJ-2009-7-6 was obtained from the soft coral
Sarcophyton sp. collected from Yongxing Island in the South China Sea. From the
solid rice culture of this fungus following addition of sea salt, a phthalide derivative,
pestalotiolide A (113), was obtained, which exhibited significant activity against the
