Ayalew, A.Kimanya, M.Matumba, L.Bandyopadhyay, RanajitMenkir, A.Cotty, P.[Controlling aflatoxins in maize in Africa: strategies, challenges and opportunities for improvement]Controlling aflatoxins in maize in Africa: strategies, challenges and opportunities for improvement

Host resistance is the most widely explored strategy for eliminating aflatoxin contamination by Aspergillus flavus. Breeding strategies for developing resistant corn germplasm have been enhanced by the development of new screening tools for field inoculation and for laboratory screening. RFLP ana...

Bandyopadhyay, RanajitMenkir, A.Asaad, S.Ban, T.Bergvinson, DavidJeffers, D.Murakami, J.Ortiz, R.Hell, K.James, B.Kumar, P.L.Nigam, S.N.Upadhyaya, Hari D.Waliyar, F.[Consultative Group on International Agricultural Research (CGIAR) research-for-development agenda on mycotoxins for enhanced food safety and trade]Consultative Group on International Agricultural Research (CGIAR) research-for-development agenda on mycotoxins for enhanced food safety and trade

Aflatoxin contamination caused by the opportunistic pathogen A. flavus is a major concern in maize production prior to harvest and through storage. Previous studies have highlighted the constitutive production of proteins involved in maize kernel resistance against A. flavus’ infection. However, ...


Luo, M.Brown, R.L.Chen, Z.Y.Menkir, A.Yu, J.Bhatnagar, D.[Transcriptional profiles uncover Aspergillus flavus-induced resistance in maize kernels]Transcriptional profiles uncover Aspergillus flavus-induced resistance in maize kernels

Aflatoxin contamination caused by Aspergillus flavus infection of corn is a significant and chronic threat to corn being used as food or feed. Contamination of crops at levels of 20 ng g–1 or higher (as regulated by the USFDA) by this toxin and potent carcinogen makes the crop unsalable, resultin...


Brown, R.Menkir, A.Chen, Z.Bhatnagar, D.Yu, J.Yao, H.Cleveland, T.[Breeding aflatoxinresistant maize lines using recent advances in technologies a review]Breeding aflatoxinresistant maize lines using recent advances in technologies a review

Brown, R.L.Bhatnagar, D.Cleveland, T.E.Chen, Z.Menkir, A.[Development of maize host resistance to aflatoxigenic fungi]Development of maize host resistance to aflatoxigenic fungi

Efforts to identify maize germplasm with resistance to Aspergillus flavus infection and subsequent accumulation of aflatoxins were initiated by the US Department of Agriculture, Agricultural Research Service at several locations in the late 1970s and early 1980s. Research units at four locati...


Williams, W.P.Krakowsky, M.D.Scully, B.T.Brown, R.L.Menkir, A.Warburton, M.L.Windham, G.L.[Identifying and developing maize germplasm with resistance to accumulation of aflatoxins]Identifying and developing maize germplasm with resistance to accumulation of aflatoxins

Aspergillus flavus infection of maize and subsequent contamination with carcinogenic aflatoxins poses serious health concerns, especially in developing countries. Maize lines resistant to A. flavus infection have been identified; however, the development of commercially-useful aflatoxin-resistant...


Chen, Z.Brown, R.L.Menkir, A.Cleveland, T.E.[Identification of resistanceassociated proteins in closelyrelated maize lines varying in aflatoxin accumulation]Identification of resistanceassociated proteins in closelyrelated maize lines varying in aflatoxin accumulation

Aflatoxins are carcinogenic secondary metab-olites produced mainly byAspergillus flavusLinkex. Fries, andA. prarasiticusSpeare duringinfection of susceptible crops, such as maize,cottonseed, peanuts and tree nuts. This paper willreview research efforts in identifying afla...


Chen, Z.Y.Brown, R.L.Guo, B.Z.Menkir, A.Cleveland, T.E.[Identifying aflatoxin resistance related proteins/genes through proteomics and RNAi gene silencing]Identifying aflatoxin resistance related proteins/genes through proteomics and RNAi gene silencing

Aflatoxin accumulation in maize (Zea mays L.) kernels is a serious economic and health problem that reduces grain quality and nutritional values and causes death to livestock and humans. Understanding the genetic parameters and heterotic responses of exotic maize inbred lines can facilitate their...
