| Abstract | Fusarium culmorum is a major pathogen associated with Fusarium head blight (FHB) of wheat in Tunisia. It may cause yield loss or produce mycotoxins in the grain. The objectives of the present study were threefold: to evaluate by PCR assays the type of mycotoxins produced by 100 F. culmorum isolates recovered from different regions in Northern Tunisia, to determine the amount of mycotoxin production by HPLC analysis, and to analyse for correlations between the amount of mycotoxin produced and the aggressiveness of isolates. PCR assays of Tri5, Tri7, Tri13, and Tri3 were used to predict whether these isolates could produce nivalenol, 3-acetyl-deoxynivalenol, or 15-acetyl-deoxynivalenol. Two of the isolates were predicted to produce NIV, whereas the others were predicted to produce 3-AcDON. Trichothecene production was confirmed and quantified by high pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) in 28 isolates, after growth on wheat grains, and in a liquid Mycotoxin Synthetic medium (MS). All strains produced DON/3-AcDON at detectable levels ranging from 21 microg/g to 11.000 microg/g of dry biomass on MS medium and from 10 microg/g to 610 microg/g on wheat grain. The evaluation of the relationship between 3-AcDON production and aggressiveness of 17 strains revealed a significant difference in aggressiveness among the isolates. Moreover, only a significant correlation was revealed between aggressiveness and the amount of 3-AcDON produced on MS medium (r=0.36). Chemotyping of F. culmorum isolates is reported for the first time for isolates from Tunisia, and highlights the important potential of F. culmorum to contaminate wheat with 3-AcDON trichothecenes. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
