Fumonisins are mycotoxins (MTs) produced mainly by the fungus <i>Fusarium verticillioides</i>, the main pathogens of maize which cause ear rot. The aim of this work was to evaluate some factors that may lead to high fumonisin production by <i>F. verticillioides</i> in maize grains, correlating the pathogen inoculation method with different genotypes grown in four Brazilian states. Experiments were conducted in 2015-2016 in maize crops from experimental maize fields located in four distinct state ...[more]
