Abstract
Two antifungal terpenoids, 6-isopropyltropolone beta-glucoside and xy- 3-methyl-trans-1-butenyl)-6-isopropyl-tropolone beta-glucoside, named by us cupressotropolone A and B, respectively, were isolated from the bark of Italian cypress, in response to infection by the fungus Diplod ia pinea f. sp. cupressi. These tropolone glucosides inhibited in vitr o germination of spores of Diplodia pinea f. sp. cupressi, Seiridium c ardinale, Alternaria alternata and Verticillium dahliae.
