DOI: 10.1094/pdis-07-21-1464-re
Abstract: Dried red chili (Capsicum spp.), a widely produced and consumed spice in Nigeria, is frequently contaminated by aflatoxins. Aflatoxins are potent mycotoxins of severe health and economic concern worldwide. Aspergillus flavus frequently contaminates crops with… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/toxins14100681
Abstract: Biological control through the application of competitive non-aflatoxigenic Aspergillus flavus (A. flavus) to the soil during peanut growth is a practical method for controlling aflatoxin contamination. However, appropriate materials need to be found to reduce… read more here.
