Molecular Determination of Toxigenic Potential of Fusarium spp. Isolated from Seeds of Wheat (Triticum aestivum) Genotypes and Evaluation of Levels of Fumonisins in the Grains at Harvest in Three Major Wheat Producing Counties in Kenya

Infestation of cereals such as wheat by pathogenic Fusarium species (Fusarium spp.) is associated with over 25% weight loss of the grain and accumulation of hazardous mycotoxins. Potential management strategies against the pathogens include the development of more resistant wheat genotypes and the d...
