Abstract

Secondary metabolites (SMs) are a vast array of small molecules produced by microbes and plants. These molecules are not essential for normal growth of an organism but play important roles, for example by functioning as defense compounds (Rohlfs et al., 2007; Rohlfs and Churchill, 2011) or signaling molecules (Böhnert et al., 2004; Dufour and Rao, 2011; Rodrigues et al., 2011) in ecological interactions. Many SM often possess pharmacological activities and have been exploited in medicine as antibiotics, anticancer and anti-infective agents and for.................
