A new phytotoxin (VdT), produced by a strain of Verticillium dahliae pathogenic on olive tree, has been purified from culture fluids. The VdT was associated with the production of disease symptoms in susceptible hosts. The structure of VdT was determined using GPC-MS. On the other hand, synthetic toxin (VdTs) was chemically prepared and used in a screening program. Our results confirmed that this new phytotoxin can be used to differentiate between Verticillium-tolerant and susceptible varieties of olive tree.
