Fumonisin mycotoxins are commonly found on maize and pose a health risk to humans and domesticated animals. Visible sorting of grain has been suggested as a simple technique that can be used to reduce exposure to fumonisins. We collected maize samples in 2003 from different farms in the Kaduna st...

Effect of sorting on incidence and occurrence of fumonisins and Fusarium verticillioides on maize from Nigeria
Grain mold of sorghum (sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench result from colonization of fungi in the developing grain towards the end of the growing season, being often associated with late rains. The major colonizing fungi (fusarium thapsinum Klittch, leslie, Nelson at Marasas sp. Nov., Curvularia lunata...

Maize grains contaminated with fumonisin, a metabolite of Fusarium verticillioides was incorporated into matured male rabbits' diet to evaluate its effects on performance, haematology and serum biochemistry in rabbits. Thirty individually caged crossbred adult rabbit bucks averaging 1.36 ± 0.01 ...
A regional Sorghum Head-Bug and Grain Mold Trial was conducted in 1996 and 1997 by WCASRN in, respectively, 15 and 13 research stations in ten west and central African countries. Empirical relationships between weather factors and head-bug damage on the one hand, and between weather factors and g...
