Occurrence and significance of Fusarium and Trichoderma ear rot in maize
Ear rots, caused by fungi, are among the most important maize diseases worldwide causing severe yield losses and a reduction of grain quality. Several toxigenic Fusarium species are known to cause yield losses and reduce grain quality, thus endangering the safety of both animal feed and human food products.

Abstract Rhynchosaurs are unusual archosauromorph reptiles that lived between the Induan and early Norian (Early to early Late Triassic). They are characterized by their stocky build and broad skull with a beak‐like premaxilla. This rather charismatic configuration is most clearly expressed in Late Triassic hyperodapedontine rhynchosaurids.

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

Mycotoxins and related Fusarium species in preharvest maize ear rot in Poland
This work presents a survey on mycotoxins (seasons 2013 and 2014) and Fusarium species (seasons from 1985 to 2014) in maize ear rot in Poland. Twelve mycotoxins were identified in maize kernel samples exhibiting symptoms of Fusarium ear rot or rotten ...

Seed‐Associated Trichoderma and Their Potential as Biocontrol Agents Against Plant Diseases
Trichoderma is a genus of beneficial fungi widely used in agriculture. Over 2 years of routine seed health analyses, we investigated the diversity of seed‐borne Trichoderma strains associated with seeds from 32 cultivated plant species. We assessed their mycoparasitic activity and their potential for disease suppression and plant growth promotion ...

Mycoflora of commercial maize seed in 2010 [PDF]
Ear and kernel rots can reduce yield, quality and feed value of grain. Toxins produced by the fungi in corn can also have serious implications on the end use of the grain. Various fungi cause ear and kernel rots.

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