Association of mycotoxin and sclerotia production with compatibility groups in Aspergillus flavus from peanut in Argentina

Vegetative compatibility (VC) of Aspergillus flavus isolates from peanut seed was studied to evaluate preliminary diversity and its association with mycotoxin production and sclerotia production and number. A. parasiticus isolates also were included as a comparative group. Isolates were divided into...
