Pyrrocidines A and B demonstrate synergistic inhibition of Fusarium verticillioides growth

Frontiers in Microbiology
Fusarium verticillioides—a mycotoxigenic fungus and food safety threat—coinhabits maize kernels with Sarocladium zeae. This protective endophyte produces secondary metabolites of interest, pyrrocidines A and B, which inhibit the growth of F ...

Influence of Mycotoxins and a Mycotoxin Adsorbing Agent on the Oral Bioavailability of Commonly Used Antibiotics in Pigs

Toxins, 2012
It is recognized that mycotoxins can cause a variety of adverse health effects in animals, including altered gastrointestinal barrier function. It is the aim of the present study to determine whether mycotoxin-contaminated diets can alter the oral ...

The Impact of Environmental Pollution and Climate Change on Allergic Rhinitis and Lung Diseases

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Environmental pollution and climate change seriously affect human health, leading to the onset and exacerbation of chronic respiratory diseases, such as allergic rhinitis and lung diseases. Over the past several decades, increasing air pollution and environmental exposure owing to global urbanization, industrialization, and rapid economic ...

The Impact of Credit and Training on Farmers Efficiency: A Semi‐Parametric Meta‐Frontier Analysis

Australian Journal of Agricultural and Resource Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Smallholder farmers in developing countries face several constraints, which affect their productivity. To reduce these constraints and enhance productivity, government and non‐governmental agencies implement programmes that provide credit and training to farmers.

Influence of Temperature and Water Activity on Deleterious Fungi and Mycotoxin Production during Grain Storage

Mycobiology, 2017
Cereal grains are the most important food source for humans. As the global population continues to grow exponentially, the need for the enhanced yield and minimal loss of agricultural crops, mainly cereal grains, is increasing.

Mycotoxins‐contaminated wheat matrices bioconversion by Tenebrio molitor larvae (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae)

Insect Science, EarlyView.
Larval development time, ADG, survival rate and substrate consumption were not negatively affected by the levels of mycotoxins contamination Larvae excreted most of the ingested DON and its derivatives through exuviae and frass The mycotoxin accumulation rates observed in larvae were always below the current legal limits for livestock feed Abstract ...

Mycotoxins in Conversation With Bacteria and Fungi

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019
An important goal of the mycotoxin research community is to develop comprehensive strategies for mycotoxin control and detoxification. Although significant progress has been made in devising such strategies, yet, there are barriers to overcome and gaps ...

Exposures in Indoor Air Affecting Health

Allergy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Indoor air quality (IAQ) is influenced by a wide range of chemical, biological and physical agents that can negatively impact physical, immunological and mental health. Adverse health effects depend on the type and concentration of pollutants, duration of exposure, and individual susceptibility.

Biogenic retrograde signaling via GUN1 ensures thermotolerant chloroplast biogenesis during seedling establishment in Arabidopsis thaliana

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Under heat stress, GENOMES UNCOUPLED1 (GUN1) is crucial for the formation of functional chloroplasts in seedlings under heat stress. Without GUN1, chloroplast development fails and seedlings fail to turn green. Therefore, GUN1 helps relay heat‐related cues to maintain chloroplast biogenesis and support thermotolerance during early growth.
