Association of Mycotoxin and Sclerotia Production with Compatibility Groups in Aspergillus flavus from Peanut in Argentina

Abstract
Vegetative compatibility (VC) of Aspergillus flavus isolates from peanut seed was studied to evaluate preliminary diversity and its association with mycotoxin production and sclerotia prod... Aspergillus flavus spp., which are distributed worldwide, may colonize peanut, corn, cottonseed, and other crops. This fungus produces aflatoxins, which are carcinogenic compounds, as well as cyclo...
