In the present study, secondary metabolites produced by an endophytic fungus Penicillium setosum were extracted using colony agar plug and culture broth extraction methods. High resolution LC-MS was used to explore the chemical nature of the secondary metabolites, as well, compare the reliability of the methods. P. setosum was chemotaxonomically distinguished from other members of section Lanata-divaricata, by its ability to produce mycotoxin, patulin and also by the presence of certain phenol-derived compounds, like quercetin, dihydroflavonols (dihydroquercetin and dihydromyricetin), kaempferol, luteolin, while some Penicillium specific compounds such as, citromycetin and andrastin D reveal its similarity towards section Lanata-Divaricata members. For the first time, the presence of dihydroquercetin is remarkably and spectrometrically confirmed from a microbial source. In addition, a few polyketides, anthroquinone compounds, hydrocarbons, and fatty acids were also detected in the culture extract. Being the first report on the production of polyphenolic compounds by an endophytic fungus of Penicillium species, the current research is crucial, and moreover the starin itself is a novel species.
