- Abstract
- A newly isolated strain of streptomyceste produces a phytotoxic substance. The active principle was isolated from the culture filtrate as sodium salt, C4H2NO3Na. From physico-chemical properties, the structure, isoxazole-4-carboxylic acid was deduced and confirmed by synthesis. It showed phytotoxicity agaist rice seedlings when applied on the submerged soil at the rate of 7.5 - 15 g/10a.
