Abstract
A phytotoxin isolated from the Stretomyces sp. causing potato russet scab in Japan (Kamenoko-byo in Japanese) was identified as a 16-membered macrolide, FD-891. It induced necrosis in potato tuber slices above 50 µg/disk, which is about 1/100 the activity of thaxtomin A. The phytotoxin was detected in potatoes infected by the pathogen and was produced by other pathogenic strains with different geographic origins.
