Betaenone A, like other betaenones ( B and C), is a secondary metabolite isolated from the fungus ''Pleospora betae'', a plant pathogen. Of the seven phytotoxins isolated in fungal leaf spots from sugar beet (''Beta vulgaris''), it showed 73% growth inhibition ''Growth inhibition'' (GI) is a medical term pertaining to cancer therapy and the specific reduction in growth of tumors and oncogene cells by a chemical compound, mechanical therapy (e.g. electroporation), radiation, gene therapy, protein therapy, ....
