It is not the Mycotoxins that replicate themselves or form themselves, but the various fungi or Mycelium which produce them. It is the fungi that require the conducive environment to produce mycotoxins and various fungi produce peculiar, or multiple Mycotoxins that range from Aflatoxin to Fuminoxin, DON and Zearalenone, etc. The conducive factors for these fungi must include appropriate substrate like corn, soy, groundnut, wheat, etc on which they require to grow. Water content in the...

The corn harvest is later than it has been any time in recent memory, and the prolonged moist conditions are conducive for molds to develop on grain in the field. Over the past few days we have received numerous reports of ear rots developing in the field and questions concerning mycotoxin production when conditions are cool but wet. Cladosporium ear rot Apart from Fusarium, Gibberella and Diplodia ear rots, we are starting to see and hear of more reports of Cladosporium...

1. Introduction Fusarium head blight (FHB) is a global disease affecting small grain cereals including wheat, barley and oat [1–4] The disease is caused by several Fusarium species of which Fusarium graminearum Schwabe is the primary etiological agent in wheat crops in Canada based on the frequency of isolation and impact on grain yield and quality [5–8]. In addition to a reduction in yield, F. graminearum produces the type B trichothecene mycotoxins, deoxynivalenol...
