Mycotoxins are toxic secondary metabolites produced by filamentous fungi that are growing
on agricultural commodities. Their frequent presence in food and their severe toxic …

Fusarium culmorum is an important pathogen of wheat causing seedling blight, foot rot, and
head blight (Fusarium head blight (FHB)) or scab. The pathogen is dominant in cooler areas …

Fusarium oxysporum is an asexual fungal species that includes human and animal
pathogens and a diverse range of nonpathogens. Pathogenic and nonpathogenic strains of …

The aim of this study was to investigate the spread of minimal, field born Fusarium infections
in wheat during storage and the resulting impact on grain quality. Therefore, Fusarium …

Recent developments in genomics have opened up for newer opportunities to study the
diversity and classification of fungi. The genus Fusarium contains many plant pathogens that …

This review summarises the genetic methods used for chemotype determination of the main
Fusarium type B-trichothecene producing species. Literature on Fusarium chemotype …

Freshly harvested wheat grain samples were collected during the 2004 growing season to
determine the presence of head blight-causing Fusarium species. Fungal contamination …

Many plant-pathogenic fungi are highly host-specific. In most cases, host-specific
interactions evolved at the time of speciation of the respective host plants. However, host …

Sugar beet in Europe is commonly grown in wheat and maize crop rotations and
subsequently pile-stored for several weeks. Beet is threatened by the colonization of …

The development of DNA sequencing technology has provided an effective method for
studying foodborne and phytopathogenic microorganisms on fruits and vegetables (F & V) …
