In this study, Fusarium species were isolated from maize kernel from Tretep, maize producer region and were identified based on microscopic- and macroscopic characters as well as molecular characters using PCR assays and the partial sequence of TEF 1-α gene （Translation Elongation Factor 1-α. The fumonisin-producing ability of these Fusarium was determined by growing them in corn medium and analyzed their fumonisin by ELISA （enzyme-linked immuno assay）. Among 9 isolates, three of them were identified as Fusarium verticillioides, two as Fusarium temperatum, two as Fusarium globosum, one as Fusarium proliJeratum and one as Fusarium subglutinans. Fusarium temperatum is similar morphologically to F. subglutinans, however, both of their differences can be found by molecular analysis. Fumonisin-producing abilities of Fusarium were determined in concentrations 20.51 pg/g-1,109.74 pg/g medium with the highest producer was identified as F. globosum.展开更多
