Other claims from this paper (7)
- Observation Fusarium graminearum and F. culmorum dominated the Fusarium community in durum wheat kernels.
- Observation Fusarium poae, F. tricinctum and F. proliferatum followed the dominant Fusarium species in wheat kernels.
- Observation Fusarium verticillioides DNA was not detected in durum wheat kernels.
- Observation Toxicologically relevant deoxynivalenol and nivalenol levels were detected in durum wheat grain.
- Observation Trichothecenes A were not detected in durum wheat grain.
- Observation Enniatins, fumonisin B1 and beauvericin occurred in durum wheat grain in all three study years.
- Mechanism The authors infer Fusarium proliferatum is the only relevant fumonisin source in wheat grain.
