Abstract

An endophyte isolated and identified to produce Vinca alkaloid is evaluated with various media combinations for enhanced production. Commercially used carbon and nitrogen sources in various combinations were tried along with combinations of macro elements, hormones and inducers. The best media recipe indicated an enhanced titer of 115µg/L against the control titer of 80µg/L.
