Damage caused by different inoculum levels of Aspergillus ochraceus on the vigour of soybean seeds [PDF]
The incidence and severity of Aspergillus ochraceus can reduce seed quality. In this study, we aimed to study the physiological quality of soybean seeds naturally infected with A. ochraceus. Seeds of soybean cv. Conquest with different levels of inoculum

Mycotoxicity of Aspergillus ochraceus to Chicks [PDF]
Five isolates of Aspergillus ochraceus , obtained from peanuts, were grown separately on sterile, moist corn for 14 days and fed to 1-day-old Babcock B-300 cockerels to evaluate their toxic effects. Two isolates were highly toxic, causing death of all birds during the 1st week of the experiment.

Influence of physiological factors on growth, sporulation and ochratoxin A/B production of the new Aspergillus ochraceus grouping [PDF]
Recently, new species within the Aspergillus section Circumdati group responsible for ochratoxin production were reported. This study has examined the impact of interactions between water activity (aw, 0.99-0.90), temperature (20-35 °C) on growth ...

Mycoviruses mediate mycotoxin regulation in Aspergillus ochraceus [PDF]
Summary To date, no demonstration of a direct correlation between the presence of mycoviruses and the quantitative or qualitative modulation of mycotoxins has been shown. In our study, we transfected a virus‐free ochratoxin A (OTA)‐producing isolate of Aspergillus ochraceus ...

Ochratoxin Production by the Aspergillus ochraceus Group and Aspergillus alliaceus [PDF]
ABSTRACT Ochratoxin A is a toxic and carcinogenic fungal secondary metabolite; its presence in foods is increasingly regulated. Various fungi are known to produce ochratoxins, but it is not known which species produce ochratoxins consistently and which species cause ochratoxin contamination of various crops.

Cloning and characterization of novel methylsalicylic acid synthase gene involved in the biosynthesis of isoasperlactone and asperlactone in Aspergillus westerdijkiae [PDF]
Aspergillus westerdijkiae is the main producer of several biologically active polyketide metabolites including isoasperlactone and asperlactone. A 5298 bp polyketide synthase gene ‘‘aomsas” has been cloned in Aspergillus westerdijkiae by using gene ...
