  • Title: Mycotoxin formation by different geographic isolates of Fusarium crookwellense.
    Author: Vesonder RF, Goliński P, Plattner R, Zietkiewicz DL.
    Journal: Mycopathologia; 1991 Jan; 113(1):11-4. PubMed ID: 1826538.
    Abstract:
    Eighteen Fusarium crookwellense isolates from the continents of Australia, Europe, and North America were compared for their ability to produce mycotoxins on corn at 25 degrees C after 2 weeks. Extracts from corn fermented with each Fusarium isolate were analyzed by thin-layer chromatography (TLC) and gas chromatography/mass spectroscopy (GS/MS) for mycotoxins. Toxins detected were zearalenone (13 isolates), fusarin C (11 isolates), nivalenol (4 isolates), and diacetoxyscirpenol (2 isolates). Zearalenone and fusarin C were produced by isolates from each continent, while nivalenol was detected in the Fusarium isolates originating from Australia and one isolate from the United States.
