DEF

[A] mycotoxin produced by fungi of the Fusarium genus, i.e. Fusarium culmorum and Fusarium graminearum, which are abundant in various cereal crops (wheat, maize, barley, oats, and rye) and processed grains (malt, beer and bread).

CONT

This mycotoxin occurs predominantly in grains such as wheat, barley, oats, rye, and maize, and less often in rice, sorghum, and triticale. The occurrence of deoxynivalenol is associated primarily with Fusarium graminearum(Gibberella zeae) and F. culmorum, both of which are important plant pathogens which cause Fusarium head blight in wheat and Gibberella ear rot in maize.

CONT

The presence of DON in fusarium affected grain can cause livestock feeding problems. Different livestock species respond differently to DON.

OBS

deoxynivalenol: Term used at the Canadian Grain Commission in the field of cereal terminology.

Le chlorothalonil est produit depuis 1969 à des fins commerciales, soit par chloration de l'isophtalonitrile, soit en traitant le tétrachlorisophtaloylamide par l'oxychlorure de phosphore. C'est un fongicide à large spectre utilisé non seulement en agriculture, mais aussi pour traiter le gazon et les plantes ornementales. On l'utilise pour protéger les fruits à pépins et noyaux, les agrumes, les groseilles, les baies, les bananes, les tomates, les légumes verts, le café, les arachides, les pommes de terre, les oignons et les céréales. En outre, il entre dans la composition de certains produits pour la conservation du bois et de certaines peintures.
