[Distribution, species composition and toxicological characteristics of Fusarium fungi isolated from corn].
Studied were the occurrence and species composition of microscopic fungi of the Fusarium genus in maize, and the results are given of testing the toxicity of these fungi for chick embryos. A total of 357 strains of Fusarium fungi were isolated from 800 maize samples. Thirty-nine per cent of the sampled material accounted for the presence of F. moniliforme, 4,5--per cent--for that of F. graminearum, and 0.5 per cent--for that of F. culmorum. Most toxic for chick embryos proved F. graminearum. Less toxic was F. moniliforme, and least toxic--F. culmorum.
