Natural co-occurrence of fumonisins, deoxynivalenol, zearalenone and aflatoxins in field trial corn in Argentina
Corn samples collected from the main production area in Argentina in 1995 were surveyed for the natural occurrence of Fusarium mycotoxins and aflatoxins. Fumonisins B 1, B 2 and B 3 and zearalenone were found in all samples. A positive relationship was found between fumonisins B 1, B 2 and B 3, B 1...

Sumario: | Corn samples collected from the main production area in Argentina in 1995 were surveyed for the natural occurrence of Fusarium mycotoxins and aflatoxins. Fumonisins B 1, B 2 and B 3 and zearalenone were found in all samples. A positive relationship was found between fumonisins B 1, B 2 and B 3, B 1 and B 3, and B 2 and B 3. Deoxynivalenol and aflatoxins were not detected. Mycological survey has also revealed the predominance of Fusarium moniliforme. This is the first report on the simultaneous occurrence of fumonisins and zearalenone in corn from the main production area in Argentina. |
