“…F. verticillioides not only is a primary pathogen of maize but also can cause diseases in other crops. Moreover, ingestion of food contaminated by this fungus can cause esophageal cancer and neural tube defects in animal and human diseases, likely due to toxic metabolites produced by F. verticillioides, such as fumonisins, fusarins, and bikaverin (42). The ccg-8-homologous gene FVEG_06643 (Fvccg-8 in this study) was deleted in F. verticillioides.…”

“…Fumonisins and Alternaria alternata lycopersici (AAL) toxins, a recently discovered group of mycotoxins structurally related to sphinganine, are produced by Fusarium moniliforme (1)(2)(3)(4)(5) and strains of Alternaria alternata (6,7), respectively ( Fig. 1).…”

“…F. moniliforme causes both stalk and ear rot of maize worldwide. Fumonisin contamination has been detected in substantial amounts (>4 ,uM) in 74% of corn in the United States and in all areas of the world where corn is produced, with levels ranging as high as 2 mM or greater (3,4,(8)(9)(10). The incidence of contamination of maize by the fumonisins is exacerbated by the endophytic life style of the fungus, which enables the fungus and its toxin to be present in maize plants and stored grain in the absence of visible disease symptoms (9).…”

“…Ambas as espécies são isoladas no milho, sendo a primeira a mais prevalecente 3 . As fumonisinas B 1 (FB 1 ) e B 2 (FB 2 ) foram isoladas de culturas de Fusarium monilifome MRC 826 por Gelderblom et al, investigadores do "South African Medical Research Council", em 1988 [4][5][6][7] . Vinte anos de investigação na possível causa para a elevada incidência de cancro esofágico (EC) na região de Transkei (África do Sul) culminaram com esta descoberta 6 .…”

A FB 1 é um diéster de propano-1,2,3-ácido tricarboxílico e 2S-amino-12S,16R-dimetilo-3S,5R,10R,14S,15R -penta-hidroxieicoisano, em que os grupos hidroxilos em C 14 e C 15 estão esterificados com um grupo carboxilo terminal do ácido tricarboxílico 8,9 .…”
