Ginkgo seed protein (GSP) has excellent processing characteristics and antioxidant properties. In this study, Gingko endophytic protein (GEP) was synthesized by Ginkgo endophytic Pseudomonas R6. SDS-PAGE analysis indicated that the molecular weights of GSP and GEP were mainly distributed at 17 KDa and 48 KDa, respectively. FTIR showed that GEP and GSP exhibited characteristic absorption in the amide I, II, and III bands, and absorption in amide A and B indicated the presence of hydrogen bonding. HPLC analysis showed that both proteins had 17 amino acids, but their relative abundance was different, with GSP having the highest Ser content (74.713 mg/g) and GEP having the highest Val content (35.905 mg/g). Stomata were observed on the surface of both proteins by SEM, and there were lamellar and some spherical structures on GEP, while the opposite was observed on GSP. GEP had superior solubility, OHC, FC and EC, while GSP showed good WHC. Both proteins exhibited antioxidant activities, with GSP exhibiting stronger hydroxyl radical scavenging ability than GEP, with IC of 0.46 mg/mL and 1.54 mg/mL, respectively. This work demonstrates the antioxidant potential of GEP as an alternative to GSP in the food industry.

is a multifunctional composite tree species that has important ornamental, economic, medicinal, and scientific research value. In October 2023, the foliage of on the campus of Nanjing Forestry University exhibited leaf blight. Black-brown necrotic spots were observed on a large number of leaves, with a disease incidence of 86%.

Two endophytes from the same host were isolated and cultured separately. Three new eremophilane sesquiterpenoids (), three new furan derivates (, -), one new polyketide (), and four known compounds (, , , ) from sp. and two new 10-membered macrolides (-), a new liner polyketide (), a new benzofuran (), and six known compounds (-) from were isolated.

Bacterial endophytes of roots take part in the secondary metabolic processes of the fossil tree and contribute to plant growth, nutrient uptake, and systemic resistance. However, the diversity of bacterial endophytes in roots is highly underestimated due to the lack of successful isolates and enrichment collections. The resulting culture collection contains 455 unique bacterial isolates representing 8 classes, 20 orders, 42 families, and 67 genera from five phyla: Actinobacteria, Bacteroidetes, Firmicutes, Proteobacteria, and Deinococcus-Thermus, using simply modified media (a mixed medium without any additional carbon sources [MM)] and two other mixed media with separately added starch [GM] and supplemented glucose [MSM]).

Five undescribed terpenoids including a polyketide-terpenoid hybrid paraphaone, and four eremophilane sesquiterpenoids, paraphaterpenes A-D, as well as two known compounds were isolated from the endophytic fungus Paraphaeosphaeria sp. cultured by extract of host Ginkgo biloba L. The structures were established by spectroscopic analyses, and the single-crystal X-ray diffraction.
