Resistance of Sorghum Genotypes to Ergot (Claviceps Species)
Ergot is an important disease affecting sorghum when susceptible cultivars are grown and environmental conditions are favorable. Resistance breeding to ergot is, therefore, of paramount importance to provide effective, sustainable, and environmentally ...

Ergot Alkaloid Contents in Hybrid Rye are Reduced by Breeding
Contamination by ergot caused by the phytopathogenic fungus Claviceps purpurea is a constant threat to the whole rye value chain. Ergot alkaloids (EA) produced within the fungal sclerotia are toxic for humans and animals and are subjected to strict ...

Immersion of grains in a liquid along an inclined plane [PDF]
Grain material delivered from combine harvesters to post-harvest processing points is a mixture of grain, weed and harmful impurities. Toxic ergot sclerotia are among the harmful impurities. Modern grain cleaning machines do not provide the separation of

Cyclopropanation of carbon-carbon double bonds in ring d of ergot alkaloids [PDF]
Some ergot alkaloid derivatives containing a double bond in ring D have been reacted with diazomethane/palladium diacetate reagent to result in formation of a fused cyclopropane ring.

Impacts of cereal ergot in food animal production
The negative impacts of ergot contamination of grain on the health of humans and animals were first documented during the 5th century AD. Although ergotism is now rare in humans, cleaning contaminated grain concentrates ergot bodies in screenings which ...
