Stress responses in alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) XVI. Antifungal activity of medicarpin and its biosynthetic precursors: implications for the genetic manipulation of stress metabolites

1992-11-01

Abstract excerpt

The alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) phytoalexin medicarpin and four biosynthetic intermediates immediately preceding medicarpin in the phytoalexin pathway were tested for antimicrobial activity against eight phytopathogenic fungi. Medicarpin, vestitone, 2'-hydroxyformononetin (2'-OHF), formononetin and daidzein were tested at concentrations from 0.1 mM to 0.5 mM in agar plate assays measuring inhibition of linear fun...
