| Abstract: | Byssochlamys species are responsible for spoilage and degradation of fruits and silages and can also produce the mycotoxin patulin. We analyzed secondary metabolite production by Byssochlamys nivea. Mycophenolic acid and its precursors, 5-methylorsellinic acid and 5,7-dihydroxy-4-methylphthalide, were identified in all of the B. nivea strains that we examined. |
