Prevalence of fungi and fusariotoxins on oat seed from western Canada, 1995-1997.

The mycoflora and levels of deoxynivalenol (DON) on oat seed (Avena sativa) was determined in grain samples collected from 39 crop districts in Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba, Canada, during 1995-1997. Alternaria alternata was the most frequently isolated species from each province. DON levels greater than or equal to 0.10 mg/kg were found in seeds from two Manitoba crop districts in 1996 and three in 1997, with a maximum level of 0.34 mg/kg. In 1997, DON was also detected in composite samples of seed from three Saskatchewan and two Alberta crop district composites.
