Abstract
New isolates of the blackleg fungus[Phoma lingam, perfect stage Leptosphaer ia maculans (Desm.) Ces. et de Not.], virulent to the traditionally resista nt brown mustard (Brassica juncea), produce L-valyl-L-tryptophan anhydride, a 2,5-dioxopiperazine different from those produced by blackleg isolates v irulent to canola (B. napus and B. rapa).
