Abstract

A new oxylipin, (8__E__,12__Z__)‐10,11‐dihydroxyoctadeca‐8,12‐dienoic acid (1), a new steroid, 3β,4α‐dihydroxy‐26‐methoxyergosta‐7,24(28)‐dien‐6‐one (2), and four known steroids, episterol (3), (22__E__,24__R__)‐ergosta‐7,22‐dien‐3β,5α,6α‐triol (4), (22__E__,24__R__)‐ergosta‐5,22‐dien‐3β‐ol (5), and (22__E__,24__R__)‐ergosta‐4,6,8(14),22‐tetraen‐3‐one (6), were isolated from the cultures of Aspergillus flavus, an endophytic fungus isolated from the marine red alga Corallina officinalis. Their structures and relative stereochemistry were elucidated by 1D, 2D NMR and mass spectroscopic techniques. 1 and 2 exhibited low activity to inhibit acetylcholinesterase and no activity against plant pathogenic fungi Colletotrichum lagenarium and Fusarium oxysporum.

## Abstract The __Aspergillus flavus__ population was evaluated in the period 1998–2001 in soil samples from the peanut‐growing region in Argentina. A total of 369 __A flavus__ isolates were examined for sclerotia, aflatoxin and cyclopiazonic acid production. The L phenotype was isolated in a highe
