Separation of trichothecene mycotoxins in a matrix of hemp (Cannabis sativa L.) seed, and quantification of deoxynivalenol in hemp grain infected with Fusarium graminearum

JSFA reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Fusarium graminearum, one of the causal agents of ear rot in maize and head blight of cereal grains, also infects hemp (Cannabis sativa L. containing a maximum of 0.3% tetrahydrocannabinol or THC). This fungal pathogen produces trichothecene mycotoxins when it infects maize and cereal grains, but little is known about its production

Maize resistance to ear rot caused by Aspergillus parasiticus [PDF]

Genetika, 2019
The fungus Aspergillus parasiticus produces aflatoxins, the most important group of mycotoxins considering their potential toxicity that may cause cancer in humans. Prevention is the most important and economically most beneficial practice in the reduction of fungal growth and mycotoxin production.

Using dendroclimatic analysis of exotic deciduous conifers in an arboretum to document tree growth in response to climate change, Northeast Ohio, USA

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Rising temperatures and wetter conditions in the Midcontinent of North America are influencing climate responses in trees. Dendroclimatological analyses of four exotic deciduous conifer species from Secrest Arboretum, Northeast Ohio help identify past, present and future climate‐tree interactions.

Recovery of male DNA acquired from carrion‐feeding insects in a simulated sexual assault scenario

Journal of Forensic Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract When bodies of sexual assault victims are discovered in advanced stages of decomposition, the recovery of direct DNA evidence is often compromised, posing a challenge in criminal investigations. This study aimed to determine insect colonization and succession patterns on pig carcasses inoculated with semen and to assess the feasibility of ...

Community‐Oriented or Self‐Interested? Citizen Motivations for Engaging in Digital Coproduction

Public Administration, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Public organizations increasingly use digitally enabled platforms such as 311 (a nonemergency service in the United States) to facilitate coproduction and improve service delivery. While prior research has examined coproducers' motivations, we know little about motivations for digital coproduction.

Breeding Maize for Resistance to Ear Rot Caused by Fusarium moniliforme

Pakistan Journal of Biological Sciences, 2012
Maize ear rots are among the most important impediments to increased maize production in Egypt. The present research was conducted to estimate combining abilities, heterosis and correlation coefficients for resistance to ear rot disease in seven corn inbred lines and their 21 crosses under field conditions.

Potential of popcorn germplasm as a source of resistance to ear rot [PDF]

Bragantia, 2017
ABSTRACT Because of its multi-purpose nature, popcorn has sparked the interest of the World Trade Organization as regards fungal contamination by mycotoxins. However, no investigations have been conducted on popcorn for resistance of genotypes to ear rot.

Transcriptome and Hormone Regulations Shape Drought Stress‐Dependent Fusarium Head Blight Susceptibility in Different Barley Genotypes

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Little is known about regulatory mechanisms that crop plants use to respond to combinations of abiotic and biotic stress. We analysed four barley genotypes under simultaneous Fusarium culmorum infection and drought stress by phenotyping for Fusarium Head Blight (FHB) disease, drought stress responses, hormone profiling and transcriptome ...

Ear rot diseases in maize (Zea mays L.), associated mycotoxins, and management practices in Ethiopia: A review

Agrosystems, Geosciences & Environment
Maize (Zea mays L.) ear rots are common diseases in maize production and result in severe yield reduction and mycotoxin contamination in Ethiopia. Mycotoxins are a serious, multifaceted economic problem, and maize is one of the major crops most commonly ...
