چکیده

The effects of selected metals (Mg, Mn, Zn, and Fe) on 3-acetyldeoxynivalenol (3-ADN) production by Fusarium graminearum R2118 and on its mycelial growth were investigated by using a two-stage submerged-culture technique. In certain concentrations ranges, Mg and Fe stimulated growth but suppressed 3-ADN production; at other concentrations, Mg, Fe, and Zn suppressed growth but stimulated 3-ADN production. In contrast, Mn stimulated growth but totally inhibited 3-ADN production at all concentrations tested. In general, the production of 3-ADN was inversely related to the growth rate of the fungus with these metals. Mn appears to be a crucial factor regulating the onset of 3-ADN biosynthesis.

Intraspecies Interaction of Fusarium graminearum Contributes to Reduced Toxin Production and Virulence.

Fusarium graminearum is a pathogenic fungus that causes Fusarium head blight in wheat and lowers the yield and quality of grains by contamination with the trichothecene mycotoxin deoxynivalenol. The fungi coexist and interact with several different fusaria as well as other plant pathogenic fungi and bacteria in the field. In Canada, F. graminearum exists as two main trichothecene chemotypes: 3-...

Altered regulation of 15-acetyldeoxynivalenol production in Fusarium graminearum.

Most Fusarium graminearum isolates produce low or undetectable levels of trichothecenes in liquid shake cultures, making it difficult to perform biochemical studies of trichothecene biosynthesis. To develop strains with higher levels of trichothecene production under liquid shake conditions we transformed F. graminearum with both a reporter gene containing a homologous trichothecene pathway gen...

A simple method with liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry for the determination of the six trichothecene mycotoxins in rice medium.

A selective and speedy LC-MS/MS method was developed to determine six trichothecene mycotoxins (nivalenol, deoxynivalenol, fusarenon X, 15-acetyldeoxynivalenol, 3-acetyldeoxynivalenol, and T-2 toxin) in rice medium where Fusarium graminearum were cultivated for in vitro tests. The analytes were extracted from the rice medium with acetonitrile/water (85/15, v/v), and diluted with acetonitrile/wa...

Genetic Relationships, Carbendazim Sensitivity and Mycotoxin Production of the Fusarium Graminearum Populations from Maize, Wheat and Rice in Eastern China

Members of the Fusarium graminearum species complex (FGSC) are important pathogens on wheat, maize, barley, and rice in China. Harvested grains are often contaminated by mycotoxins, such as the trichothecene nivalenol (NIV) and deoxynivalenol (DON) and the estrogenic mycotoxin zearalenone (ZEN), which is a big threat to humans and animals. In this study, 97 isolates were collected from maize, w...

Comparative Analysis of Deoxynivalenol Biosynthesis Related Gene Expression among Different Chemotypes of Fusarium graminearum in Spring Wheat

Fusarium mycotoxins, deoxynivalenol (DON) and nivalenol (NIV) act as virulence factors and are essential for symptom development after initial infection in wheat. To date, 16 genes have been identified in the DON biosynthesis pathway. However, a comparative gene expression analysis in different chemotypes of Fusarium graminearum in response to Fusarium head blight infection remains to be explor...
