    Annu Rev Phytopathol 43:83-116. 2005
    ..There is also a role for transgenic modification with genes that confer resistance. At the political level, there is a need to acknowledge that plant diseases threaten our food supplies and to devote adequate resources to their control...

    Subramanium Gopalakrishnan
    Department of Biology, Darwin Building, University College London, Gower Street, London WC1E 6BT, UK
    Phytochemistry 66:1536-9. 2005
    ..NMR and mass spectral studies showed that the toxin was 8-O-methyl-fusarubin. The pure compound caused permanent wilting of chickpea cuttings and the LD50 value in the cell bioassay was 327 ng/ml...

    Estelle Gewiss Mogensen
    Department of Biology, Darwin Building, University College London, Gower Street, London, UK
    FEMS Microbiol Lett 255:255-61. 2006
    ..Loss of toxin production by transformants was confirmed by reversed phase high-performance liquid chromatography. Sixteen transformants out of 668 tested produced significantly less solanapyrone A than the wild-type strain...
