Abstract

The phytotoxin produced by Burkholderia gladioli was purified and characterized. The ultraviolet and visible absorption spectrum of the phytotoxin exhibited two maxima at 260 nm and 399 nm in 80% aqueous methanol. The molecular weight of this substance was determined as 193 and the molecular formula was decided as C7H7N5O2 by a high resolution FAB mass spectrometry. From these results, this substance was identified as toxoflavin.
