Validamycin A（Cat No.:R001150）, is a naturally occurring antibiotic and agricultural fungicide derived from Streptomyces hygroscopicus var. limoneus. This compound inhibits the growth of various fungi, making it valuable in protecting crops from fungal diseases. Validamycin A disrupts fungal cell wall formation, ultimately suppressing their ability to infect plants. It is particularly effective against pathogenic fungi like Rhizoctonia and Pyricularia, which cause crop damage. Its eco-friendly profile and low mammalian toxicity have contributed to its use in sustainable agriculture.
