Abstract
The addition of an aqueous extract from fruitbodies of Tylopilus felle us to tissue cultures of Holarrhena antidysenterica (Apocynaceae) caus ed the accumulation of an unknown compound in the culture medium. The compound was isolated and identified as 5-hydroxymethyl-2-furancarboxa ldehyde (1). Moreover, biosynthesis of phenolic compounds was stimulat ed in response to the stress agents of the fungal preparation. Methyl ferulate. (2) was the major phenolic constituent.
