Effects of Phytotoxic Nonenolides, Stagonolide A and Herbarumin I, on Physiological and Biochemical Processes in Leaves and Roots of Sensitive Plants.

ABSTRACT: Phytotoxic macrolides attract attention as prototypes of new herbicides. However, their mechanisms of action (MOA) on plants have not yet been elucidated. This study addresses the effects of two ten-membered lactones, stagonolide A (STA) and herbarumin I (HBI) produced by the fungus Stagonospora cirsii, on Cirsium arvense, Arabidopsis thaliana and Allium cepa. Bioassay of STA and HBI on punctured leaf discs of C. arvense and A. thaliana was conducted at a concentration of 2 mg/mL to evaluate phenotypic responses, the content of pigments, electrolyte leakage from leaf discs, the level of reactive oxygen species, Hill reaction rate, and the relative rise in chlorophyll a fluorescence. The toxin treatments resulted in necrotic and bleached leaf
