✦ Synopsis
M. F. Grundon has succeeded J. E. Saxton as senior reporter for the sixth volume of this excellent series on alkaloids. This comprehensive review of the literature published between July 1974 and June 1975 follows the format established by the previous volumes.
Chapter 1 deals with biosynthesis, which continues to be an area of considerable interest. In addition to the work on various alkaloids, many biosynthetic studies are reported on secondary microbial metabolites, including gliotoxin, mycelianamide, demethyltomaymycin, actinomycin, the cytochalasins, mitomycin, rifamycin, penicillins, and prodigiosins.
