Activity of Quinones on Colletotrichum Species

The antifungal activity of 1,4-naphthoquinones, 1,2-naphthoquinones, 1,4-benzoquinones, and anthraquinones from our natural products collection was tested by direct bioautography to identify natural products with potential use in agricultural fungal pathogen control. Quinones demonstrated good to mo...

Zusammenfassung:	The antifungal activity of 1,4-naphthoquinones, 1,2-naphthoquinones, 1,4-benzoquinones, and anthraquinones from our natural products collection was tested by direct bioautography to identify natural products with potential use in agricultural fungal pathogen control. Quinones demonstrated good to moderate antifungal activity against Colletotrichum spp. Colletotrichum fragariae was the most sensitive species to quinone-based chemistry, Colletotrichum gloeosporioides had intermediate sensitivity, while Colletotrichum acutatum was the species least sensitive to these compounds.
