Abstract excerpt
Fusarium verticillioides (teleomorph Gibberella moniliformis) is an ascomycete known to produce a variety of secondary metabolites, including fumonisins, fusaric acid and bikaverin. These metabolites are synthesized when the fungus is under stress, notably nutrient limitations. To date we have limited understanding of the complex regulatory process associated with fungal secondary metabolism. In this study we...
