A novel natural product exhibiting biological activity was isolated from a strain of Botrytis cinerea that had infected raspherry fruit (Rubus ideaus). Liquid fermentation and bioassay-directed fractionation of the organism yielded a compound with molecular formula C22H3808
Abstract:
that is trivially named homobotcinolide. It significantly inhibited
etiolated wheat coleoptile growth. Greenhouse-grown bean, corn, and
tobacco plants were also affected by exogenous applications of
homobotcinolide, severe chlorosis and necrosis being exhibited in corn.
The compound is a polyhydroxylated nonalactone esterified with
4-hydroxy-2-decenoic acid.
