AFLATOXINS: WHAT ARE THEY? - TOXIC CHEMICALS PRODUCED BY FUNGI (Aspergillus flavus and A. parasiticus) GROWING IN CROPS - CAUSE DISEASE IN ANIMALS AND HUMANS (MYCOTOXICOSIS) - MAY BE PRODUCED IN THE FIELD OR AFTER HARVEST - AFFECT MANY TYPES OF CROPS
3
TYPES OF AFLATOXINS STRUCTURE OF B 1, THE MOST POTENT AFLATOXIN, SPECIFICALLY REGULATED IN SOME COUNTRIES ALSO: B 2, G 1 AND G 2 M 1 AND M 2 IN MILK: SPECIFICALLY REGULATED
4
AFLATOXIN TOXICITY - HUMANS HEPATIC AND GASTROINTESTINAL INJURY IMMUNOSUPPRESSIVE TERATOGENIC ONCOGENIC SEVERE LIVER INJURY, SOMETIMES FATAL (2-6 MG/DAY FOR A MONTH)
5
AFLATOXIN TOXICITY - ANIMALS LUNG LESIONS IN A PIG POISONED BY AFLATOXIN VARIOUS SYMPTOMS: FROM REDUCED GAIN TO DEATH VARYING SENSITIVITY AMONG SPECIES
6
AFLATOXIN POISONING FROM CORN – RECENT CASES TEXAS, 1998: 25 DOGS DIED 100-200 PPB, FULL DIET FOR 90 DAYS KENYA, 2004: 125 PEOPLE DIED, 192 POISONED DAMP STORAGE OF CORN, UP TO 8,000 PPB

LOSS FROM AFLATOXIN IN TEXAS CORN IN 1998 YIELD LOSS FROM DROUGHT PRICE DROP ($2.20/BU vs. $2.80) $407 MILLION VALUE W/O TOXIN 18 – 31% CROP CONTAMINATION TOXIN VALUE: $1.30 - $1.40 / BU $17 - $40 MILLION LOSS

HISTORY IN TEXAS AFLATOXIN? LOSING TURKEYS: “I CUT THEM OPEN AFTER THEY DIE AND FIND A BIG LIGHT COLLORD LIVER; THE GIZZARD IS ENLARGED, ALSO THE GALL IS TWICE AS LARGE AS SHOULD BE.” - LETTER TO FARM AND RANCH, MAY 19, 1917 FROM VAN ZANDT COUNTY, TX

HISTORY IN TEXAS J.J. Taubenhaus documents A. flavus as a pathogen

11
…CONSEQUENTLY, AFLATOXIN DETECTION REQUIRES A CHEMICAL ANALYSIS EXTRACTION PURIFICATIONANALYSIS DETECTION IS DIFFICULT!
12
SAMPLING IS MORE DIFFICULT! CONTAMINATION IS NOT UNIFORM: - WITHIN A REGION - WITHIN A FIELD - ON A PLANT - WITHIN AN EAR - WITHIN A SEED

DROUGHT HIGH TEMPERATURES AT FLOWERING INSECT INJURY STRESS ON PLANT + INCREASE IN PATHOGEN REPRODUCTION
25
FACTORS AFFECTING AFLATOXIN PRODUCTION ACTIVITY DOES NOT START UNTIL KERNEL MOISTURE <32% BEST RANGE IS 16-20% MOISTURE, 18% IS OPTIMAL OPTIMAL 77-86 o F, BUT FUNGUS GROWS WELL AT 97 o F
26
AFLATOXIN MANAGEMENT IN THE FIELD (PRE-HARVEST) - host resistance - insect control - cultural practices - biological treatment USE OF SEVERAL APPROACHES
27
HOST RESISTANCE - TO INSECT, CONVENTIONAL & TRANSGENIC (Bt): NOT ENOUGH - TO FUNGUS: SOURCES IN LINES, NOT EASY TO INTRODUCE INTO HYBRIDS - IMPROVED HOST TOLERANCE TO STRESS

CORN BREEDING AND AFLATOXIN EVALUATION FOR RESISTANCE REQUIRES MORE TIME AND LABOR THAN OTHER TRAITS
33
PESTICIDE TREATMENTS INSECTICIDES TARGETED TO: - REDUCE PLANT STRESS (E.G. PRESCRIBE FOR ROOT INSECTS) - REDUCE EAR INJURY FUNGICIDES ARE NOT EFFECTIVE OR PRACTICAL
34
CULTURAL PRACTICES - PLANTING DATE - PLANT POPULATIONS - WEED & PEST CONTROL - IRRIGATION - TILLAGE TO BREAK HARD PAN - ADEQUATE FERTILITY
35
CULTURAL PRACTICES WHATEVER YOU DO TO GET THE BEST CROP POSSIBLE DOES NOT CONFLICT WITH MYCOTOXIN MANAGEMENT
36
BIOLOGICAL CONTROL - AF36 LABELED FOR COTTON IN TX AND AZ - AFLA-GUARD: GA PEANUTS - APPLIED EARLY SEASON TO COVER FIELD - AREA-WIDE TREATMENT - CARRY OVER (PLACE/TIME)
37
HARVEST PRACTICES - SEGREGATE HARVEST OF “GOOD” AND “BAD” FIELDS -CHANGE COMBINE SETTINGS TO REMOVE DAMAGED SEED - EARLY HARVEST, FOLLOWED BY ARTIFICIAL DRYING - CLEANING SEED AFTER HARVEST (E.G. DENSITY SEPARATOR)
38
MYCOTOXINS IN INTACT AND DAMAGED/DISCOLORED KERNELS “GOOD”: 35 PPB AFLATOXIN 1 PPM FUMONISIN DAMAGED OR DISCOLORED: 270 PPB AFLATOXIN 9.3 PPM FUMONISIN REPRESENTATIVE DAMAGED KERNELS
