dc.description.abstract | Various methods have been developed for the analysis of Fusarium and its toxins. Advances in molecular biology can lead to efficient characterization of this group of fungi. This study was undertaken to examine random amplified polymorphic DNA, volatile compound production and hydrolytic enzyme production by 19 Fusarial isolates. These techniques were employed to assess their abilities in differentiating Fusarium species and F. verticillioides strains and extending the analysis to discriminate toxin producing capabilities amongst these fungi | en_US |
