Resumen:
In Latin America different climatic conditions are prevalent and different crops can be cultivated including corn, wheat, coffee, sunflower, soybean among others.Different species included in the genus Aspergillus, Penicillium, Fusarium and Alternaria can contaminate the both cereals, oily seeds and their by products. Some of the species are of concern due to their toxigenic potential. Different factors as temperature, water availability, chemical compounds can influence both growth and toxin production by the toxigenic species.The populations of Aspergillus section Flavi isolated from peanut , Fusarium species, within the Gibberella fujikuroi complex isolated from corn and Fusarium graminearum isolated from wheat are genetically diverse.
