Özet

Nature provides a broad arsenal of structurally diverse and pharmacologically active compounds that serve as highly effective drugs with advanced chemical structures for the development of novel synthetic drugs to combat a multitude of diseases. Marine natural products are considered as promising sources of new secondary metabolites with pharmaceutical potential. Turkey has over 8300 km coastline with different geographical zones or habitats accounting for a great amount of diversity among its species. The largely unexplored Turkish seas with a wide range of biological diversity provide a lot of scope in future. In this section, we have tried to assemble studies of Turkish marine invertebrates and associated fungal species attempted so far.
