Cowpea is an important protein source for human populations in many nations across sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). However, cowpea production is constrained by bacterial blight (CoBB) caused by Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. vignicola (Xav), a disease affecting most cowpea-growing areas. A large proportion...

Aspergillus flavus has long been considered to be an asexual species. Although a sexual stage was recently reported for this species from in vitro studies, the amount of recombination ongoing in natural populations and the genetic distance across which meiosis occurs is largely unknown. In the cu...

Aflatoxins are noxious secondary metabolites, of certain fungal species, found in food and feed. Contamination of a commodity with aflatoxins is associated with production and storage losses, and subsequently less food availability. Aflatoxins can also pose human health risks and represent a barr...

Water yam (Dioscorea alata L.) is one of the most important food yams with wide geographical distribution in tropics. One of the major constraints to water yam production is anthracnose disease caused by a fungus, Colletotrichum gloesporioides (Penz.). There are no economically feasible solutions...

Mycotoxins are major food contaminants affecting global food security, especially in low and middle-income countries. The European Union (EU) funded project, MycoKey, focuses on “Integrated and innovative key actions for mycotoxin management in the food and feed chains” and the right to safe food...
