Abstract The restriction of plant‐symbiont dinitrogen fixation by an insect semiochemical had not been previously described. Here we report on a glycosylated triketide δ‐lactone from Nephrotoma cornicina crane flies, cornicinine, that causes chlorosis in the floating‐fern symbioses from the genus Azolla. Only the glycosylated trans‐A form of chemically
