Abstract

Eutypa lata, the fungus responsible for dying-arm disease in grapevines, produces a number of structurally related secondary metabolites, of which eutypine (1) has been implicated as the principal phytotoxin. However, analysis of an E. lata strain from California known to be pathogenic to grapevines showed that eutypine was not present, suggesting that other metabolites could be phytotoxic. Investigation of the relative phytotoxicities of ...
