Griseaketides A-D, New Aromatic Polyketides from the Pathogenic Fungus Magnaporthe grisea.
Griseaketides A-D, New Aromatic Polyketides from the Pathogenic Fungus Magnaporthe grisea.

Magnaporthe grisea is the causal agent of rice blast disease, which is the most serious disease of cultivated rice. Aromatic polyketides are its typical metabolites and are involved in the infection process. In the search for novel lead compounds, chemical investigation of the fungus M. grisea M639 has led to the isolation of four new aromatic polyketides
