Differentiation of Claviceps purpurea in Axenic Culture [PDF]
The growth form of a strain of Claviceps purpurea in axenic culture has been controlled by the amino nitrogen source. Within the pairs asparagine/aspartic acid or glutamine/glutamic acid the amide promoted sphacelial growth of the colony whereas the acid supported differentiation of plectenchymatic sclerotial tissue and synthesis of ergot alkaloids ...

Metabolism of the Germinating Sclerotium of Claviceps purpurea [PDF]
The concentration of free amino acids, particularly alanine, altered as stromata developed on germinating sclerotia. Lipid reserves in the sclerotium provided the principal carbon and energy source, and the nutrients required for stomatal growth appeared to be provided by the sclerotial tissues immediately beneath the point of attachment of the stoma ...

Establishment and micropropagation of axenic in vitro cultures of salt marsh grasses within the genus <i>Sporobolus</i>. [PDF]
Abstract Premise Salt marshes in the North Atlantic United States are dominated by grasses from the genus Sporobolus, which are perennial C4 plants known for tolerating saline, anoxic, and flooded coastal sediments. Establishing in vitro cultures of Sporobolus species remains a major challenge due to frequent seed contamination from ergot and ...

UPDATED REVIEW ON EXTRACTION, ISOLATION AND QUANTITATIVE ESTIMATION OF ERGOT ALKALOIDS [PDF]
Ergot Alkaloids are potent α-blockers that cause direct smooth muscle contraction. They are products of fungi in the genus Claviceps. The most prominent member of this group is Claviceps purpurea (rye ergot fungus).

Methods of Lysergic Acid Synthesis—The Key Ergot Alkaloid
Ergot is the spore form of the fungus Claviceps purpurea. Ergot alkaloids are indole compounds that are biosynthetically derived from L-tryptophan and represent the largest group of fungal nitrogen metabolites found in nature.
