Exposure to 10 μg/cm(2) of α- and β-duvatrienemonols, sucrose esters, or hydrocarbons did not inhibit germination, whereas germination was significantly decreased bycis-abienol.cis-Abienol did not inhibit sporangial germination when combined with sucrose esters or hydrocarbons at a combined 10 μg/cm(2). Germination of sporangia was completely inhibited by α- and β-duvatrienediols. In contrast to a previous report, α-DVT-diol was more inhibitory than the β isomer. Toxic effects of the DVT-diols were not altered by pH. Diluting the DVT-diols to less than 0.1 μg/cm(2) resulted in a small but significant stimulation of germination. Previously, the DVT-diols had been identified only as inhibitory toP. tabacina. None of the leaf surface chemicals affected germination ofA. alternata conidia.}, number={5}, journal={JOURNAL OF CHEMICAL ECOLOGY}, author={MENETREZ, ML and SPURR, HW and DANEHOWER, DA and LAWSON, DR}, year={1990}, month={May}, pages={1565–1576} } @inbook{menetrez_spurr_1989, title={Specificity of Peronospora hyoscyami}, ISBN={0890540977}, booktitle={Blue mold of tobacco}, publisher={St. Paul, Minn.: APS Press}, author={Menetrez, M.
