Ergot alkaloids contribute to virulence in an insect model of invasive aspergillosis
Scientific Reports, 2017 Neosartorya fumigata (Aspergillus fumigatus) is the most common cause of invasive aspergillosis, a frequently fatal lung disease primarily affecting immunocompromised individuals. This opportunistic fungal pathogen produces several classes of specialised

Ciência Rural, 2008 The occurrence of the alditol oligosaccharides in the Claviceps afriana honeydew is partly as a rational expression of the pathogen's selective nutritive metabolism of the sucrose supplied by the host plant. The experiments were carried out in laboratory

Host specialization of different populations of ergot fungus (Claviceps purpurea)
Czech Journal of Genetics and Plant Breeding, 2002 In our previous study of Claviceps purpurea three populations were found: G1 on open localities, G2 from shady or wet habitats and G3 on Spartina stands of coastal salt marshes. The latter two are also chemoraces.

Aptamer-based extraction of ergot alkaloids from ergot contaminated rye feed [PDF]
, 2014 Ergot alkaloids are mycotoxins which can be found in food based on cereal-crops, due to a contamination of plants by fungi of the genus Claviceps. The ingestion of ergot contaminated cereal crops can lead to a severe poisoning known as ergotism. For food

Ergot Alkaloids on Cereals and Seeds: Analytical Methods, Occurrence, and Future Perspectives
Molecules, 2023 Ergot alkaloids are secondary metabolites resulting from fungi of the genus Claviceps that have proven to be highly toxic. These mycotoxins commonly infect cereal crops such as wheat, rye, barley, and oats.
