Effects of Fumonisin-Contaminated Corn on Growth Performance of 9 to 28 kg Nursery Pigs
Toxins, 2020 Fumonisin contamination in corn is an emerging issue in animal feed production. Fumonisin disrupts the metabolism of sphingolipids and reduces growth performance.

Toxins, 2019 The mycotoxin fumonisin is known to be harmful to humans and animals, and thus it is desirable to reduce fumonisin content in crop products. We explored the functions of several genes that function in fumonisin biosynthesis (FUM1, FUM6, FUM8, FUM19, and ...

Toxins, 2019 Fumonisins are mycotoxins (MTs) produced mainly by the fungus Fusarium verticillioides, the main pathogens of maize which cause ear rot. The aim of this work was to evaluate some factors that may lead to high fumonisin production by F. verticillioides in

Genomics of Maize Resistance to Fusarium Ear Rot and Fumonisin Contamination
Toxins, 2020 Food contamination with mycotoxins is a worldwide concern, because these toxins produced by several fungal species have detrimental effects on animal and/or human health.

Two genetically modified insect-resistant maize events reduced fumonisin pollution under the stress of Lepidoptera in China [PDF]
GM Crops & FoodChina is the second-largest maize producer and consumer globally. During maize production, Fusarium spp. often gets infected, and mycotoxins like fumonisin contaminate it. Fumonisin has become the most widely polluted mycotoxin type in China.

Genome-wide association analysis for fumonisin content in maize kernels
BMC Plant Biology, 2019 Background Plant breeding has been proposed as one of the most effective and environmentally safe methods to control fungal infection and to reduce fumonisin accumulation. However, conventional breeding can be hampered by the complex genetic architecture

Fungal chemical warfare: the role of aflatoxin and fumonisin in governing the interaction between the maize pathogens, Aspergillus flavus and Fusarium verticillioides [PDF]
Frontiers in Cellular and Infection MicrobiologyThe mycotoxigenic fungi, Aspergillus flavus and Fusarium verticillioides, commonly co-colonize maize in the field, yet their direct interactions at the chemical communication level have not been well characterized.
