Mycotoxin Co-Occurrence in Michigan Harvested Maize Grain

open access: yesToxins, 2022
Mycotoxins are secondary metabolites produced by fungi that, depending on the type and exposure levels, can be a threat to human and animal health. When multiple mycotoxins occur together, their risk effects on human and animal health can be additive or ...

The Stress Response Regulator AflSkn7 Influences Morphological Development, Stress Response, and Pathogenicity in the Fungus Aspergillus flavus

open access: yesToxins, 2016
This study focused on AflSkn7, which is a stress response regulator in the aflatoxin-producing Aspergillus flavus. The ΔAflSkn7 mutants exhibited partially defective conidial formation and a complete inability to generate sclerotia, indicating AflSkn7 ...

aflN Is Involved in the Biosynthesis of Aflatoxin and Conidiation in Aspergillus flavus

open access: yesToxins, 2021
Aspergillus flavus poses a threat to society economy and public health due to aflatoxin production. aflN is a gene located in the aflatoxin gene cluster, but the function of AflN is undefined in Aspergillus flavus.

The PHD Transcription Factor Rum1 Regulates Morphogenesis and Aflatoxin Biosynthesis in Aspergillus flavus

open access: yesToxins, 2018
Aspergillus flavus produces mycotoxins especially aflatoxin B1 and infects crops worldwide. As a PHD transcription factor, there is no report on the role of Rum1 in the virulence of Aspergillus spp. yet.

CWI pathway participated in vegetative growth and pathogenicity through a downstream effector AflRlm1 in Aspergillus flavus

open access: yesiScience, 2021
Summary: The cell wall is an essential dynamic structure for shielding fungus from environmental stress, and its synthesizing and remodeling are regulated by the cell wall integrity (CWI) pathway.

Historical data on fungal contamination of maize (Zea mays L.) from different agroecological zones in Nigeria: a review

open access: yesItalian Journal of Mycology
Fungi attack maize in the field, and if warm and humid conditions that are suitable for fungal growth and mycotoxin production prevail, they can grow rapidly during storage, causing loss of quantity and quality, a reduction in nutrient content, and ...
