Abstract Fusarium spp. are phytopathogens causing fusarium head blight in wheat. They produce mycotoxins, mainly fumonisins, deoxynivalenol, and zearalenone. The study was conducted during two growing seasons (2020 2021) at the experimental field laboratories of Hungarian University Agriculture Life Sciences (MATE). aim to determine influence season, nitrogen fertilisation, wheat variety on inf...

The cereals crops in Belgium are not safe from serious contaminations by mycotoxins. Theyears 1997 and 1998 for example were very favourable to the development of Fusariumhead blight. On that account, the project main objective consists in assessing the risk ofmycotoxins contamination and studying the environmental factors that contribute to increasethe rate of wheat contaminati...

The routine and prophylactic use of fungicides in cereals leads to increased aggressiveness Fusarium infections. Cross-resistance triazole compounds represents a significant health risk both plants humans. application some widely used causes production DON. Residual concentrations hydrophobic triazoles change chemical profile malt cause delayed fermentation with an impact on alcohol content. In...

In order to evaluate the informal wheat seed contamination with seed-bornediseases, two most important provinces (East Azarbaijan and Khorasan Razavi) forwheat production were selected in cold region of Iran in 2008-2009 crop seasonsand ten different locations (city or village) were considered in each province andten informal seed farmers were selected randomly. A seed sample (1 kg) was takenfr...

Fusarium graminearum is causal agent of economically catastrophic disease of cereal Fusarium Head Blight (FHB) around the world. In addition to causing a loss of yield, this fungus causes serious threats to humans and animals due to the contamination of grain with the trichothecene mycotoxin. TRI101 gene, a Fusarium spp. gene, encodes an enzyme that transfers an acetyl group to the C3 hydroxyl ...

We developed a PCR-based assay to quantify trichothecene-producing Fusarium based on primers derived from the trichodiene synthase gene (Tri5). The primers were tested against a range of fusarium head blight (FHB) (also known as scab) pathogens and found to amplify specifically a 260-bp product from 25 isolates belonging to six trichothecene-producing Fusarium species. Amounts of the trichothec...
