Fungal endophytes were isolated from the leaves of Calotropis procera (Apocynaceae) collected from Taif region (Saudi Arabia). Thirty-three different taxa were recovered. The overall foliar colonization rate was 35.1%. A total of 161 isolates were obtained and identified into 33 distinct operational taxonomic units based on the sequencing of the internal transcribed spacer regions of the rRNA gene. The most prevalent fungi were Aspergillus flavus, Chaetomium globosum, Cochliobolus lunatus, Fusarium dimerum, F. oxysporum, and Penicillium chrysogenum. A total of 161 isolates were tested for antifungal activities against four plant pathogenic fungi (Alternaria alternata, Fusarium oxysporum, Botrytis cinerea, and Pythium ultimum), of which 33 isolates showed antifungal activity against at least one plant pathogenic fungi. Four isolates of Chaetomium globosum and three isolates of Myrothecium verrucaria showed the strongest antifungal activity. This study reported the occurrence of a much wider spectrum of fungi, when compared with previous work. Also, it confirmed the variation of different isolates from the same species in terms of antifungal activity.
