effects on turkey poults of rations containing corn invaded by fusarium tricinctum (cda.) sny. & hans.consumption of an otherwise balanced ration containing 1% of corn invaded by fusarium tricinctum isolate 2061-c resulted in the death of 13% of turkey poults within 35 days, in decreased feed efficiency and weight gain, and moderate development of bilateral necrotic lesions at angles of the mouth, especially in those that succumbed. consumption of a ration with 2% of corn invaded by f. tricinctum resulted in death of 60 to 83% of the birds, in greatly reduced growth and feed efficiency in the su ...19725059619
t-2 toxin decreases logarithmic growth rates of tobacco callus tissues.t-2 toxin, a mycotoxin produced by fusarium tricinctum, decreases logarithmic growth rates of tobacco (nicotiana tabacum l.) pith callus tissues. toxin concentrations as low as 0.003 mum will decrease growth rates; a concentration of 0.081 mum will halt growth completely. additional exogenous cytokinin will reduce the inhibition by toxin only when the initial cytokinin and toxin concentrations are quite low (about 0.01 mum). when inhibited tissues are transferred to media lacking toxin, they ass ...197316658625
fusarium tricinctum t-2 toxin inhibits auxin-promoted elongation in soybean hypocotyl.t-2 toxin, a mycotoxin produced by fusarium tricinctum, inhibited elongation of excised hypocotyl sections of glycine max var. hawkeye 63. auxin-promoted elongation was inhibited more severely than was control elongation, and a 1 hour preincubation of 5 mum toxin prevented the induction of a faster rate of elongation by auxin. while the inhibition of elongation by cytokinin was similar to that of the toxin, the mode of action of the two compounds appeared to be different, i.e. their effects on e ...197316658626
effects on laying hens of feeding corn invaded by two species of fusarium and pure t-2 mycotoxin.balanced rations containing 2.5 and 5.0% of corn invaded by fusarium tricinctum, (with 8 and 16 p.p.m. of t-2 toxin) were fed to white leghorm laying hens. the ration containing 5% of the fungus-invaded corn resulted in reduced feed intake and reduction in weight gain and in egg production. rations containing 2.5 and 5.0% of corn invaded by f. roseum 'gibbosum' (with 25 and 50 p.p.m., respectively, of monoacetoxyscirpenol) resulted in an abrupt decrease in feed intake to 10-20% of normal, subseq ...1977605028
