Compound 1, a triterpenoid saponin from Ardisia gigantifolia Stapf showing potential anti-tumour activity, was hydrolysed into two deglycosyl derivatives (2 and 3) by Alternaria alternata AS 3.6872. Both these derivatives are new compounds. Their structures were elucidated on the basis of 1D, 2D NMR, HR-ESI-MS and optical rotation spectral data. Compounds 1-3 were evaluated for their cytotoxicity against human hepatocellular carcinoma and normal liver cells by Cell Counting Kit 8 colorimetric assay.

The industry plays an important role in the economic development of Yuanjiang county of Yuxi city in Yunnan province, China. In order to reduce the harm of diseases and ensure the quality of products, the occurrence of was investigated. The pathogenic fungi of wild and cultivated species of were isolated by a tissue separation method, and DNA sequencing was carried out by using the sequence analysis of the ribosomal rDNA-ITS region, and the pathogenic fungi were classified and identified by finally combining morphological observations.

Background: Tenuazonic acid (TeA), a mycotoxin produced by Alternaria alternata, contaminates various food commodities and is known to cause acute and chronic health effects. However, the lack of human toxicokinetic (TK) data and the reliance on external exposure estimates have stalled a comprehensive risk assessment for TeA.
Objective: To bridge this gap, a human TK trial and population-based TK (PopTK) modeling were applied to determine human TK parameters of TeA, and the results were applied for risk screening using population biomonitoring data and threshold of toxicological concern (TTC)-based approaches.

Background: Tobacco brown spot (TBS) caused by Alternaria alternata is one of the most common diseases of tobacco in China, resulting in large loss in yield and quality. Demethylation inhibitors (DMIs) such as tebuconazole are commonly used pesticides to control TBS. However, their control effect has shown a downward trend in recent years.

Electronic address:
Sorbitol, a main photosynthate and transport carbohydrate in all tree fruit species in Rosaceae, acts as a signal controlling resistance against Alternaria (A.) alternata in apple by altering the expression of the MdNLR16 resistance gene via the MdWRKY79 transcription factor. However, it is not known if N-methyladenosine (mA) methylation of the mRNAs of these genes participates in the process.
