Fusarioses of certain wheat grain categories and their mycotoxicological infection

Certain climatological conditions favor the infection of wheat by field moulds, and influence very much the yield, the overall quality and the hygienic properties of the wheat. The investigations included 6 wheat varieties from the first locality and 5 varieties from the second locality. The investigated samples were most often contaminated by fungi of the genus Fusarium. Each wheat sample was classified with respect to the degree of contamination by these fungi as slightly fusarious contaminated and very fusarious contaminated grain. The mycotoxins, their metabolites, were isolated from the greatest number of contaminated grains.
