Abstract excerpt
Fusarium species are traditionally grouped into type A and type B trichothecene producers based on structural differences in the mycotoxin they synthesize. The type B trichothecene-producing Fusarium graminearum strains are further divided into 3-acetyldeoxynivalenol (3-ADON), 15-acetyldeoxynivalenol (15-ADON), and nivalenol (NIV) chemotypes. The former two chemotypes, collectively termed a deoxynivalenol (DON)...
