Molecular biology and biotechnology for reduction of Fusarium mycotoxin contamination

Fusarium head blight (FHB) is a devastating disease of important cereal crops resulting in significant yield loss and mycotoxin contamination. Persistent outbreaks of FHB in Europe and North America have led to various efforts to understand the mechanisms of resistance to this disease and mycotoxin...

Zusammenfassung:Fusarium head blight (FHB) is a devastating disease of important cereal crops resulting in significant yield loss and mycotoxin contamination. Persistent outbreaks of FHB in Europe and North America have led to various efforts to understand the mechanisms of resistance to this disease and mycotoxin biosynthesis. In this minireview, we summarize basic and applied studies conducted in our laboratories into reducing mycotoxin contamination in FHB.
