… We show here that oxidative stress is involved in both sclerotial differentiation (SD) and
aflatoxin B1 biosynthesis in Aspergillus flavus. Specifically, we observed that (i) oxidative stress …

… Finally, we propose that it is not enough to differentiate S and L strain types by merely
using sclerotia size, but that it is necessary to define a combination of traits that could take into …

… Therefore, among strains that have genetic potential for forming aflatoxins ( secondary
metabolites) and sclerotia (complex differentiated fungal structures), both would be formed during …

… Isolates of Aspergillus flavus obtained from a new growing peanut region in Argentina (…
Sclerotia diameters and the number of sclerotia produced per square centimetre were also …

… Aspergillus flavus is a ubiquitous saprophyte and is capable of … flavus population that
produces small sclerotia (S strain) has … flavus. Decanal treatment yielded fluffy variants lacking …

… flavus fluG mutant produces increased amounts of sclerotia, which are … flavus does not
