Key Points

  • This research aims to evaluate the antifungal properties of dehydrocostus lactone from Saussurea costus roots and its mechanism of action against fungal pathogens.
  • Isolation of dehydrocostus lactone from Saussurea costus roots
  • Assessment of antifungal activity against M. oryzae
  • Analysis of infection-related morphogenesis inhibition
  • Dehydrocostus lactone effectively prevents rice blast disease in plants
  • Inhibition of M. oryzae morphogenesis was observed
  • Potential identified for dehydrocostus lactone as an alternative bioagent in controlling fungal diseases

Abstract

The results of our study demonstrate that DHLC isolated from Saussurea costus roots prevents rice blast disease by inhibiting the infection-related morphogenesis of M. oryzae, highlighting its potential as an alternative bioagent to control fungal diseases in plants. © 2026 Society of Chemical Industry.
