Abstract Background Pterocarpus erinaceus Poir. is a plant widely used in traditional medicine Benin, treating various diseases such as diabetes, ulcers, parasitic infections, hypertension, and infertility. This under strong anthropogenic pressure due to its overexploitation, putting it danger of extinction. The study aims explore the antimicrobial enzymatic activities endophytes produced by . Methods Fresh leaves, stems, roots P. , collected two phytogeographical zones Savalou Abomey-Calavi were sterilized eliminate surface microorganisms prior cultivation isolation endophytes. Isolated tested for (catalase, cellulase, protease, lipase, amylase), their evaluated measuring inhibition diameters. content total polyphenols flavonoids was determined spectrophotometry. Results results showed that bacterial have higher colonization (80.55%) (69.44%) rates than fungal (44.44% 50%, respectively). Bacterial expressed more lecithinase amylase, whereas little. Only isolates (HT1a HF2b) antibacterial activity, one isolate (HF2b) antifungal action against Candida albicans while no demonstrated significant activity. Fungal show variation polyphenol content, similar levels. As far are concerned, strains F3b SR2C high levels, unlike which contain very few. Conclusion These underscore importance conserving exploring potential therapeutic applications.
