title: Mycotoxins and fungi accompanying wheat head fusariosis in Poland.
abstract: The occurrence of wheat head fusariosis in various regions of Poland was observed in 1985 and 1986. The incidence of fusariosis was usually low - about 0,01% - only on South - East in some localities reached 5 - 20%. The most important species isolated from infected heads were :Fusarium culmorum F.grami nearurn,F.ni vale andF.avenaceum, in addition to whichF.crookwel1ense,F.eqiseti,F.subqluti nans andF.tricinctum (sensu Nelson et al.1983) were observed. Deoxynivalenol was present in 100% examined kernels subsamples at level 5-18 mg/kg and 3-acetyl deoxyn i val enol in 70% at level 1-3 mg/kg. The mycotoxins amount in chaff was 1,4 to 2,6 and 1,4 to 11 times higher (DON and 3AcD0N resp.) than in kernels.
