Production of Aflatoxin by Cultures Derived from Conidia Stored in the Laboratory

&
Pages 61-66 | Accepted 28 Mar 1973, Published online: 12 Sep 2018
 

SUMMARY

The aflatpxin-producing ability of cultures of Aspergillus flavus and A. parasiticus derived from room-temperature-dried conidia stored in closed jars remained relatively unchanged for periods of 21–34 mo. Viability of the conidia decreased during storage. There was a rapid loss of both viability and aflatoxin-producing ability of moist conidia under similar conditions within 21–60 da. Viability of conidia dried over a desiccant before harvest also decreased rapidly.
