e0“Inoculation with A niger alone or with A flavus resulted in various levels of seed and seedling mortality and lower yields of peanut pods than yields of the other inoculation treatments.”

- Association Control peanut crops had higher germination and harvested-plant percentages in spring than fall.
- Intervention effect A niger inoculation alone caused varying peanut seed and seedling mortality.
- Intervention effect A niger inoculation alone produced lower peanut pod yields than other inoculation treatments.
- Intervention effect Combined A niger and A flavus inoculation produced lower peanut pod yields than other inoculation treatments.
- Observation Fairly low percentages of harvested peanut kernels were mould-colonised.
- Observation Harvested peanut kernel aflatoxin contents were low or undetectable.
- Intervention effect Peanut kernel colonisation and aflatoxin content were independent of artificial inoculation.
- Observation Average aflatoxin contents across peanut cultivars and crops ranged from 0 to 6.1 µg kg−1.
- Observation The highest sample aflatoxin content in the fall 1996 peanut crop was 4.0 µg kg−1.
- Observation The highest sample aflatoxin content in the spring 1997 peanut crop was 18.2 µg kg−1.
- Observation The highest sample aflatoxin content in the fall 1997 peanut crop was 9.6 µg kg−1.
- Observation The highest sample aflatoxin content in the spring 1998 peanut crop was 36.7 µg kg−1.
