Selected fungi were grown on agar plates in the presence of naringenin, apiforol, apiforol 7-O-rhamnoglucoside, or apigeninidin. Of the four compounds tested, only apigeninidin inhibited the growth ofFusarium oxysporum, Gibberella zeae, Gliocladium roseum, Altemaria solani, and Phytophthora infestons. In contrast, the growth ofRhizoctonia solani, Sclerotium rolfsii, and Rhizopus stolonifer (- and +) was not effected by any compound. Since apigeninidin is present in seeds ofSorghum sp., we hypothesize that apigeninidin may play a role in mold resistance and that apiforol accumulates as a biosynthetic precursor of apigeninidin, not as a fungal defense compound.
选择的真菌在琼脂平板上生长，存在柚皮素、橙皮苷、橙皮苷 7-O-鼠李糖苷或芹菜素配基。在所测试的四种化合物中，只有芹菜素配基抑制了尖孢镰刀菌、禾谷镰刀菌、玫瑰枝孢霉、茄丝核菌和致病疫霉的生长。相比之下，丝核菌、立枯丝核菌和腐乳霉（-和+）的生长不受任何化合物的影响。由于芹菜素配基存在于高粱属种子中，我们假设芹菜素配基可能在抗真菌方面发挥作用，而橙皮苷积累为芹菜素配基的生物合成前体，而不是作为真菌防御化合物。
