This new compound formed during sexual interaction is a minor constituent of the culture media and its structure was elucidated by spectroscopic data, including 2D-NMR. A plausible biosynthetic pathway involving a double degradation of β-carotene, followed by several oxidations of the resulting monocyclofarnesane C15 fragment is proposed.}, organization = {This research was financed by Junta de Andalucía (Grants FQM 340, CVI 910, and P08-CVI-03901) and the Spanish Government (Grant CTQ 2010-16818, subprogram BQ).}, publisher = {MDPI}, title = {A Minor Dihydropyran Apocarotenoid from Mated Cultures of Blakeslea trispora}, doi = {10.3390/molecules171112553}, author = {Fernández Barrero, Alejandro and Herrador del Pino, María del Mar and Arteaga Burón, Pilar and Fernández Arteaga, Jesús}, }
