Occurrence of Ergot Alkaloids in Barley and Wheat from Algeria [PDF]
Toxins, 2021 The natural occurrence of six major ergot alkaloids, ergometrine, ergosine, ergotamine, ergocornine, ergokryptine and ergocristine, as well as their corresponding epimers, were investigated in 60 cereal samples (barley and wheat) from Algeria. Ultra-high

Multi-locus GWAS analysis identifies genomic regions associated with resistance to ergot (Claviceps africana) in sorghum. [PDF]
PLoS ONEDeployment of resistant genotypes is one of the major components of ergot disease management in sorghum. Identification of genomic regions and candidate genes associated with resistance to ergot is a key step to facilitate sorghum breeding for resistance

Biology, Genetics, and Management of Ergot (Claviceps spp.) in Rye, Sorghum, and Pearl Millet
Toxins, 2015 Ergot is a disease of cereals and grasses caused by fungi in the genus Claviceps. Of particular concern are Claviceps purpurea in temperate regions, C. africana in sorghum (worldwide), and C. fusiformis in pearl millet (Africa, Asia).

Genetics, Genomics and Evolution of Ergot Alkaloid Diversity
Toxins, 2015 The ergot alkaloid biosynthesis system has become an excellent model to study evolutionary diversification of specialized (secondary) metabolites. This is a very diverse class of alkaloids with various neurotropic activities, produced by fungi in several

Methods of Lysergic Acid Synthesis—The Key Ergot Alkaloid
Molecules, 2022 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.
