Zearalenol and 8'-hydroxyzearalenone from Fusarium roseum

R D Stipanovic et al. Mycopathologia. .

Abstract

Fusarium roseum f. sp. gibbosum and F. roseum f. sp. semitectum were isolated from blighted culms of grain sorghum. Zearalenol and 8'-hydroxyzearalenone were produced by these isolates cultured on grain sorghum or cracked yellow field corn. Zearalenol is reported to have uterotropic activity and might be an important mycotoxin in sorghum.
