Scientific communication is facilitated by a data-driven, scientifically sound taxonomy that considers the end-user's needs and established successful practice. In 2013, Fusarium community voiced near unanimous support for concept of represented clade comprising all agriculturally clinically important species, including F. solani species complex (FSSC). Subsequently, this was challenged in 2015 one research group who proposed dividing genus into seven genera, FSSC described as members...
With 744 million metric tons produced in 2017/2018, bread wheat ( Triticum aestivum ) and durum are the second most widely cereal on a global basis. Prevention or control of diseases may have an enormous impact food security safety. Fusarium head blight is economically debilitating disease that reduces quantity quality grain harvested, lead to contamination with mycotoxin deoxynivalenol, which affects health humans domesticated animals. Current climate change scenarios predict increase...
The distribution of Fusarium species (Liseola section) and fumonisins B1, B2, B3 (FB1, FB2, FB3) in corn at the field stage to harvest time has been investigated. Corn samples were obtained from 45th day after flowering stage, with 15 intervals. A good correlation between fungal fumonisin contamination was observed. In particular, higher infection represented mainly by moniliforme proliferatum, two well-known producers fumonisins. Low levels detected first second samplings, when...
Mycotoxins are major food contaminants affecting global security, especially in low and middle-income countries. The European Union (EU) funded project, MycoKey, focuses on “Integrated innovative key actions for mycotoxin management the feed chains” right to safe through strategies regulation, which fundamental minimizing unequal access sufficient worldwide. As part of MycoKey a Mycotoxin Charter (charter.mycokey.eu) was launched share need harmonization legislation policies minimize human...
A sample of 140 Fusarium graminearum isolates from Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil, representing three populations at least 150 km one another, were examined for trichothecene genotype based on PCR amplification portions the Tri3 and Tri12 genes a species‐specific (Fg16F/R) primer pair. Genetic diversity was assessed in 103 F. lineage 7 ( sensu stricto ) using amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) markers. The 15‐ADON dominant, followed by NIV (2–18% prevalence), across all populations....
Aflatoxins are produced by Aspergillus flavus and A. parasiticus in oil-rich seed grain crops a serious problem agriculture, with aflatoxin B1 being the most carcinogenic natural compound known. Sexual reproduction these species occurs between individuals belonging to different vegetative compatibility groups (VCGs). We examined genetic variation 758 isolates of flavus, minisclerotigenes sampled from single peanut fields United States (Georgia), Africa (Benin), Argentina (Córdoba), Australia...
