Alternariol is a toxic metabolite of Alternaria fungi.[1] It is an important contaminant in cereals and fruits.[2] Alternariol exhibits antifungal and phytotoxic activity. It is reported to inhibit cholinesterase enzymes.[3] It is also a mycoestrogen.

Alternariol is reported to be a full androgen agonist in an in vitro assay.[4]
