Production of Beauvericin, Moniliformin, Fusaproliferin, and Fumonisins B1, B2, and B3 by Fifteen Ex-Type Strains of Fusarium Species†

摘要

Fifteen Fusarium species were analyzed by high-performance liquid chromatography for the production of six mycotoxins in corn grits cultures. Production of mycotoxins ranged from 66 to 2,500 μg/kg for fumonisin B1, 0.6 to 1,500 μg/g for moniliformin, 2.2 to 720 μg/g for beauvericin, and 12 to 130 μg/g for fusaproliferin. Fumonisin B2 (360 μg/kg) was produced by two species, fumonisin B3 was not detected in any of the 15 species examined, and Fusarium bulbicola produced none of the six mycotoxins that we analyzed.
