Studies on the production of NX toxins by Fusarium culmorum on different cereal species
Fusarium culmorum is an important pathogen of cereal plants. Infected plants accumulate mycotoxins of the trichothecene B group, such as deoxynivalenol or nivalenol. These toxins pose a risk to the safety of food and animal feed. New trichothecenes,...
