Abstract

Reducing production of type B trichothecenes by Fusarium graminearum on cereals is necessary to control contamination, prevent yield reduction and protect human and animal health. Thus, an understanding of how trichothecene biosynthesis is induced is essential. The effect of ambient pH on fungal gro...
