Phenotypic Differentiation of Two Morphologically Similar Aflatoxin-Producing Fungi from West Africa
Aflatoxins (AF) are hepatocarcinogenic metabolites produced by several <i>Aspergillus</i> species. Crop infection by these species results in aflatoxin contamination of cereals, nuts, and spices. Etiology of aflatoxin contamination is complicated by mixed infections of multiple species w...
