An induced and six preformed antifungal compounds were isolated from Chinese yam (Dioscorea batatas) inoculated with the bacterium Pseudomonas cichorii. The induced compound, a phytoalexin, was identified as dihydropinosylvin. The preformed compounds were characterized as oxygenated bibenzyls and phenanthrenes.
