Cylindrocladium

Three metabolites, Cyl-1, Cyl-2, Cyl-3, were found in the culture filtrate of Cylindrocladium scoparium (181, 182). Cyl-1 and Cyl-2 showed inhibition of root growth, whereas Cyl-3 promoted the growth of lettuce seedlings. The structure (cyclic peptide) was eluciated only for Cyl-2 (182) as shown in Figure 10.

This method was further applied in the stmcture modification of Ilicicolin H, polyketide isolated from the Cylindrocladium iliciola MFC-870 (Equation 15). 

Chatoglobosin A (58) and the related compounds are mycotoxins produced by various iungi such as Chaetomium sp. These mycotoxins are acutely toxic to mammals [46]. Chaetoglobosin O was isolated from Cylindrocladium Jloridanum causal fungus of black rot disease to alfalfa [47]. Biosynthetic studies using the cheatoglobosin-produc-ed strain Chaetomium subqffine revealed that the incorporation of the precursor [1- C, 02]-, H3]-acetate, labeled methionin and... 

Evidence for the biosynthesis of metabolites containing the 4-hydroxy-2-pyridone chromophore has been obtained. Ilicicolin H (92) is an antifungal metabolite firstly obtained from Cylindrocladium ilicicola [116] and subsequently isolated from a Gliocladium sp. [117, 118]. It is interesting to note that Gliocladium and Trichoderma species are closely related and have frequently been confused. The 4-hydroxy-2-pyridone...
