    Weed Technology / Volume 2 / Issue 4 / October 1988

  • A rationale for the study of phytotoxins from fungal pathogens of plants is presented. Structural chemistries and biological data are given for numerous, recently discovered phytotoxins in such diverse chemical classes as polyketides, terpenoids, diketopiperazines, and isocoumarins. The biological activities of these compounds range from broadly toxic (curvulin) to host specific (maculosin-1). Phytotoxicology offers a viable supplement to organic synthesis as a means of developing and implementing new, biorational, and economical herbicides.
