Abstract: | Rice blast is a devastating fungal disease resulting in major losses to rice crops. Owing to continuous acquisition of resistance by the causal fungus, several fungicide chemicals are no longer effective. Therefore, there is a need to identify natural components and develop new agents to control fungal pathogens. We previously demonstrated that the culture filtrate of Biscogniauxia sp. O821 inhibited infection behavior of Magnaporthe oryzae and subsequent blast lesion formation. In the present study, we isolated a new compound, (3aS,4aR,8aS,9aR)-3a-hydroxy-8a-methyl-3,5-dimethylenedecahydronaphto2,3-b]furan-2(3H)-one (HDFO), from the culture filtrate of Biscogniauxia sp. O821 and determined its molecular weight as 248. The HDFO structure was determined by electrospray ionization-mass spectrometry and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy after purification with column chromatography and high-performance liquid chromatography. The structure of this antifungal compound was similar to that of alantolactone and isoalantolactone. The growth inhibition zone against M. oryzae in presence of HDFO was observed at Rf 0.5–0.6 on a thin layer chromatography plate. HDFO inhibited conidial germination of M. oryzae in a dose-dependent manner (1–200 ppm). Furthermore, blast lesion formation was significantly suppressed by HDFO at over 5 ppm. These results suggest that HDFO from the culture filtrate of Biscogniauxia sp. O821 can protect rice from rice blast disease caused by M. oryzae. This is the first report that HDFO produced by Biscogniauxia sp. can serve as an antifungal compound against M. oryzae. |
