Aerva lanata, a perennial herb in the Amaranthaceae family of the genus Aerva, native to Asia, Africa, and Australia was subjected to endophytic isolation and characterisation. F.equiseti was isolated from leaves, stem and root of the plant. Fusarium is a large genus of filamentous fungi belongs to class sordariomycetes which are distributed in soil and in association with plants, mostly symptomless.
