Zearalenone, deoxynivalenol, and T-2 toxin associated with stalk rot in corn

C J Mirocha et al. Appl Environ Microbiol. 1979 Sep.

Abstract

The mycotoxins zearalenone (2.8 micrograms/g), deoxynivalenol (1.5 microgram/g), and T-2 toxin (110 ng/g) have been found in the pith of corn stalks standing in the field. Such contaminated stalks may contribute to mycotoxicoses of farm animals.
