Abstract

One-hundred-and-thirteen isolates of Fusarium were tested for their ability to produce zearalenone on autoclaved corn. They belonged to the following species (number of producers per number tested): F. epispheria , (0/1); F. moniliforme , (0/8); Gibberella fujikuroi , (0/3); F. nivale , (0/7); F. oxysporum , (0/15); F. roseum , (31/51); F. solani , (0/9); F. tricinctum (3/19). The isolates of individual species produced the following amounts of zearalenone per gram of corn: 3 isolates of F. roseum (0.6 to 119 μg), 3 of F. roseum “Culmorum” (1 to 210 μg), 3 of F. roseum “Equiseti” (0.6 to 2.0 μg), F. roseum “Gibbosum” (115 to 175 μg), 21 of F. roseum “Graminearum” (0.2 to 230 μg), and 3 of F. tricinctum (0.2 to 6.0 μg). All isolates of F. roseum “Graminearum” which formed the perithecial stage of G. zeae ( G. roseum ) produced zearalenone. Production occurred by the wild but not the appressed cultural type. Zearalenone production by F. tricinctum was confirmed by a mouse bioassay.
