Abstract
|
|
|
|
The seeds of 20 barley cultivars were tested for aflatoxin contamination and susceptibility to infection by an aflatoxin-producing mold. When the samples were tested as they arrived, no aflatoxin was detected on any of them. When their moisture was raised to 25% and they were kegt as 25℃ for 2 weeks, all expect 2 cultivars showed aflatoxin contamination. Aflatoxins B₂ and G₂ were not detected in this incubation period. After wetting (25% moisture) the samples, inoculating them with Aspergillus parasiticus conidia and storing them at 25℃ for 2 weeks, all cultivars were found heavily contaminated with aflatoxin, those with seedcoats more so than those without seedcoats.
