Bacterial diseases of rice plants

The first evidence for aminocarbapyranoses occurring in Nature dates back to early 70s with the discovery of validamine 202 (Chart 3), a carbasugar constituent of Validamycins, an antibiotic complex which shows growth inhibition activity against bacterial diseases of rice plants [50]. Shortly after, validamine 202, along with valiolamine 203 and valienamine 204, (Chart 3), were isolated from the fermentation broth of Streptomyces hygroscopicus var. limoneus [50],... 

Aristeromycin. Aristeromycin (36), the first carbocyhc analogue of adenosine, was isolated from the culture filtrates of S. citricolor as part of a search for inhibitors of bacterial leaf blight (1—4). A herbicidaHy active hypoxanthine analogue of (36), coaristeromycin, has also been isolated (108). Several chemical syntheses of (36) have appeared (1—4,109). It inhibits Aanthomonas OTjc e and Eyricularia bacterial leaf blight, blast disease of rice plants, and... 

Selected members of the l,3,4-thiadiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidine ring system possess larvicidal activity (housefly), protective activity against bacterial leaf-blight disease of the rice plant, and herbicidal activity. ...
