Abstract
|
|
|
During the screening for the inhibitors of cellulose biosynthesis as herbicides we discovered a Streptomyces sp. A6497 with a selective antifungal activity against cellulose containing Phytophthora parasitica but not against cellulose lacking Candida albicans. The inhibitor was isolated and identified using a series of chromatographies. Based on structure analyses with UV spectrophotometry mass and various NMR the inhibitor was identified as sangivamycin. The compound exhibited strong antifungal activities against P. parasitica (MIC; 3.125 ¥ìg/ml). In particular it showed strong herbicidal activities against various weeds in the greenhouse experiment. Taken together these results suggest that sangivamycin is a useful lead compound for the development of new herbicides.
