Actions of 6-Pentyl-alpha-pyrone in Controlling Seedling Blight Incited by Fusarium moniliforme and Inducing Defence Responses in Maize
2009-12-01
Abstract excerpt
The antifungal metabolite 6-pentyl-alpha-pyrone (6PAP) exhibited phytotoxic effects on germination and elongation growth of coleoptiles when maize kernels were germinated on filter papers impregnated with 300 and 200 mg/l 6PAP, respectively. 6PAP severely retarded development of both roots and shoots of maize seedlings in nutrient solutions at increasing concentrations (200-300 mg/l). In contrast, under greenhouse...
