Metabolite Identification
Common NameSchizostatin
DescriptionSchizostatin is a natural product belonging to the class of benzoic acid derivatives. This metabolite has been isolated from the culture extract of the fungus Schizophyllum commune, alongside other compounds such as 4-hydroxybenzoic acid and dibutyl phthalate (PMID:40655355 ). Schizostatin exhibits notable biological activity, particularly as a synergistic agent in enhancing the efficacy of demethylation inhibitor (DMI) fungicides, such as tebuconazole, against plant pathogens like gray mold on tomato leaves (PMID:33312093 ). In assays, schizostatin demonstrated the ability to reduce the necessary dosage of DMIs while maintaining effective disease control, indicating its potential as a natural antifungal synergist (PMID:33312093 ). Furthermore, studies have shown that schizostatin can influence the transcription levels of ergosterol biosynthetic genes in response to DMIs, suggesting a mechanism for its synergistic effects (PMID:33312093 ). Overall, schizostatin represents a promising compound in agricultural applications for disease management, particularly in reducing fungicide usage without compromising efficacy (PMID:30988992 ).
