    Abstract:
    Fusarium moniliforme is the predominant fusarium species in the grain mycoflora of corn grown in Northern Caucasus, accounting for 95% of fusarium isolates. Eighty-five Fusarium moniliforme strains were grown on grain substrate and checked for the presence of fumonisins (B1 + B2 + B3) by indirect solid-phase enzyme immunoassay (EIA). All strains were capable of producing fumonisins (0.95 to 32,000 mg/kg). Strains sampled in the Krasnodar krai produced the highest fumonisin levels (averaging 5490 mg/kg).
