The effects of a number of polyamine biosynthetic inhibitors on the growth of four species of
necrotrophic fungi were examined in vitro. Additions of polyamines were also made to …

Studies were conducted on the distribution of two polyamine biosynthetic enzymes, or-
nithine decarboxylase (ODC) and arginine decarboxylase (ADC), and the effect of their …

Effect of inhibitors of polyamine (PA) biosynthesis, alpha-difluoromethylornithine (DFMO),
methylglyoxal bis (guanylhydrazone)--MGBG and bis (cyclohexylammonium) sulphate …

We have studied the effects of two polyamine biosynthetic inhibitors, α-difluoro-
methylornithine (DFMO) and α-difluoromethylarginine (DFMA), and of polyamines (PAs) …

Several inhibitors of polyamine biosynthesis reduced mycelial growth of the fungus
Ophiostoma ulmi (Buism.) Nannf. cultured on malt extract‐agar medium. Growth inhibition …

DFMO reduced mycelial growth of the ectomycorrhizal fungus Paxillus involutus. This was
accompanied by reduced activities of ornithine decarboxylase, S‐adenosylmethionine …

The fungus Pyrenophora avenae, an important pathogen of oat crops, was grown on solid
and liquid media containing the polyamine biosynthesis inhibitors difluoromethylornithine …

The effectiveness of inhibitors of polyamine biosynthesis in controlling plant pathogenic
fungi is well established. The spermidine synthase inhibitor cyclohexylamine (CHA) and the …

The main free polyamines identified in ungerminated spores of Glomus mosseae were
putrescine and spermidine. Changes in the level of these metabolites occurred during …

Putrescine (Put), spermidine (Spd) and spermine (Spm) were widely distributed in 15
thermophilic moulds representing Zygomycetes, Ascomycetes, and Deuteromycetes …
