Abstract excerpt
Aflatoxin contamination caused by Aspergillus flavus represents a serious food safety threat in tropical agroecosystems. This study examined the genetic diversity, population structure and geographical distribution of the mycotoxin biosynthetic gene clusters in A. flavus isolates associated with maize (Zea mays L.) and chilli (Capsicum annuum L.) from Bangladesh. Thirty-eight isolates were evaluated for...
