A phytoalexin produced by the leaflets of seven cultivars of Arachis hypogaea (groundnut) after natural infection by Cercospora arachidicola or Phoma arachidicola has been characterised as the isoflavonoid (+)-medicarpin (3-hydroxy-9-methoxypterocarpan). Treatment of excised groundnut leaflets with an aqueous solution of CuSO₄ or with a spore suspension of the fungus Helmin-thosporium carbonum has also been found to stimulate medicarpin biosynthesis.
