Insights into the genetic and biochemical basis of Gibberella ear rot resistance in maize. [PDF]

Plant Genome
Abstract Fusarium graminearum colonizes the maize ear, causing Gibberella ear rot (GER) and producing harmful mycotoxins, including deoxynivalenol (DON) and zearalenone (ZEA). The disease can be managed in part by breeding and planting resistant maize cultivars. Resistance to GER is a quantitative and complex trait.

Advances in Studies on Toxicity and Transformation of Zearalenone and Its Derivatives [PDF]

, 2023
Zearalenone (ZEN) is a mycotoxin produced by the Fusarium species, which has various toxic effects. The chemical structures of ZEN and its derivatives are similar to that of estrogen.

Transformations of Selected Fusarium Toxins and Their Modified Forms During Malt Loaf Production

Toxins, 2020
An increasing number of studies have found that modified mycotoxins, such as free mycotoxins, naturally occur in food, and severely impact food safety. The present study investigated concentrations of trichothecenes nivalenol (NIV), deoxynivalenol (DON),

Assessment of Human Exposure to Deoxynivalenol, Ochratoxin A, Zearalenone and Their Metabolites Biomarker in Urine Samples Using LC-ESI-qTOF

Toxins, 2021
Human are exposed to a wide range of mycotoxins through dietary food intake, including processed food. Even most of the mycotoxin exposure assessment studies are based on analysis of foodstuffs, and evaluation of dietary intake through food consumption ...

Occurrence and co-occurrence of mycotoxins in cereal-based feed and food [PDF]

, 2020
Dietary (co)-exposure to mycotoxins is associated with human and animal health concerns as well as economic losses. This study aims to give a data-based insight from the scientific literature on the (co-)occurrence of mycotoxins (i.e., parent and ...

Synthesis of Mono- and Di-Glucosides of Zearalenone and α-/β-Zearalenol by Recombinant Barley Glucosyltransferase HvUGT14077

Toxins, 2017
Zearalenone (ZEN) is an estrogenic mycotoxin occurring in Fusarium-infected cereals. Glucosylation is an important plant defense mechanism and generally reduces the acute toxicity of mycotoxins to humans and animals.

Modified Fusarium Mycotoxins in Cereals and Their Products—Metabolism, Occurrence, and Toxicity: An Updated Review

Molecules, 2018
Mycotoxins are secondary fungal metabolites, toxic to humans, animals and plants. Under the influence of various factors, mycotoxins may undergo modifications of their chemical structure.

Detached leaf in vitro model for masked mycotoxin biosynthesis and subsequent analysis of unknown conjugates [PDF]

, 2014
The manuscript details the development of an in vitro model plant system using detached leaves because there is a need for biosynthetic methods for the production and isolation of masked mycotoxins.

Metabolism of Zearalenone and Its Major Modified Forms in Pigs

Toxins, 2017
The Fusarium mycotoxin zearalenone (ZEN) can be conjugated with polar molecules, like sugars or sulfates, by plants and fungi. To date, the fate of these modified forms of ZEN has not yet been elucidated in animals.

Biomarkers for exposure as a tool for efficacy testing of a mycotoxin detoxifier in broiler chickens and pigs [PDF]

, 2019
Applying post-harvest control measures such as adding mycotoxin detoxifying agents is a frequently-used mitigation strategy for mycotoxins. EFSA states that the efficacy of these detoxifiers needs to be tested using specific biomarkers for exposure ...
