Production of vomitoxin on corn by Fusarium graminearum NRRL 5883 and Fusarium roseum NRRL 6101.

چکیده
Two vomitoxin-producing isolates of Fusarium spp. were grown on cracked corn for 1 to 8 weeks at 15, 20, 25, 28, and 32 degrees C. Maximum production of vomitoxin by Fusarium graminearum Schw. NRRL 5883 occurred at 30 degrees C and 40 days, and that by Fusarium roseum Schw. NRRL 6101 occurred at 26 degrees C and 41 days. These optimum production points were determined from response surface contour graphs in relation to temperature and time. Only small amounts of vomitoxin were produced at 15 and 20 degrees C by each strain. A 133-microgram quantity of vomitoxin, with an indicated purity of 95%, was isolated per gram of corn fermented with F. graminearum NRRL 5883.

Co-identity of the refusal and emetic principle from Fusarium-infected corn.
The structure of vomitoxin isolated from Fusarium-contaminated corn was proved to be 3,7,15-trihydroxy-12,13-epoxytrichothec-9-en-8-one. This same toxin is responsible for the "refusal phenomenon" exhibited by swine fed contaminated corn. In addition, two new substances believed to be trichothecenes were isolated from naturally infected corn. Vomitoxin was also isolated from rice inoculated wit...
متن کاملProduction of refusal factors by Fusarium strains on grains.
Corn fermented with strains of Fusarium culmorum NRRL 3288, F. poae NRRL 3287, F. moniliforme NRRL 3197, and F. nivale NRRL 3289 at 28 degrees C for 13 days was refused when fed to 30- to 60-pound (about 13.6- to 27.2-kg) swine. Analyses of the refused corn for trichothecenes (T-2, HT-2, acetyl T-2, fusarenon-X, and vomitoxin) showed that only the corn fermented with F. culmorum contained vomit...
متن کاملProduction of deoxynivalenol and zearalenone by isolates of Fusarium graminearum Schw.
The production of deoxynivalenol (DONI) on rice, corn, wheat, and barley grains by Fusarium graminearum Schw. NRRL 5883 was investigated. Highest yields (91.9-202 ppm) were obtained on rice; yields on the other substrates were: corn (34.1-84.5 ppm), wheat (3.6-24.4 ppm), and barley (0-6.6 ppm). Fifty isolates of Fusarium from corn inoculated in the field in 1979 with a mixture of strains of F. ...
متن کاملAdaptation of Fusarium graminearum to tebuconazole yielded descendants diverging for levels of fitness, fungicide resistance, virulence, and mycotoxin production.
Azole fungicides play a prominent role for reliable plant disease management. However, quantitative azole resistance has been shown to develop in fungal pathogens, including Fusarium graminearum, the causal agent of Fusarium head blight (FHB). Due to widespread application of azole fungicides, resistance may accumulate to higher degrees in fungal field populations over time. Although azole fung...
متن کاملDevelopment of a PCR assay to detect the potential production of nivalenol in Fusarium poae.
Fusarium species can produce mycotoxins, which can contaminate cereal-based food producing adverse effects for human and animal health. In recent years, the importance of Fusarium poae has increased within the Fusarium head blight complex. Fusarium poae is known to produce trichothecenes, especially nivalenol, a potent mycotoxin able to cause a variety of toxic effects. In this study, a specifi...
