Table 2 Antibacterial activities of whole broth extract of endophytic fungal isolates. Whole broth extracts of A. alternata P02PL2, A. alternata P02MS1, and N. oryzae P02MS2A were tested against S. aureus ATCC 25923 (A), S. aureus C.S (B), MRSA (methicillin-resistant S. aureus) 25775 (C), and MDR (multidrug-resistant) Pseudomonas (D). The control included a fungi-free MEB whole broth extract), and the diluent, 0.2% dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO). The Zone of inhibition sizes represents the mean values of triplicates from each fungal whole broth extract
