Aspterric acid is a carotene-type sesquiterpene, plant growth regulator, and inhibitor of pollen development originally isolated from the fungus A. terreus.[1] [2] It inhibits pollen development, reduces stem length at first flowering, and increases the time to bolting and first flowering in A. thaliana when used at a concentration of 38 μM. Aspterric acid exerts its effects on reproductive growth in A. thaliana without inhibiting biosynthesis and transport of the plant growth regulator indole-3-acetic acid .[2]
