Dothistromin toxin is a virulence factor in dothistroma needle blight of pines

2015-02-01

Abstract excerpt

Dothistromin is a broad‐spectrum mycotoxin produced by the Dothideomycete pine needle pathogen Dothistroma septosporum. It accumulates in lesions, causing characteristic red bands on needles infected with this fungus. Dothistromin is similar in structure to the aflatoxin precursor versicolorin B and the biosynthetic pathways of these toxins share many common gene products. Although dothistromin is not essential fo...
