A Novel Trichothecene Toxin Phenotype Associated with Horizontal Gene Transfer and a Change in Gene Function in <i>Fusarium</i>

A Novel Trichothecene Toxin Phenotype Associated with Horizontal Gene Transfer and a Change in Gene Function in <i>Fusarium</i>

<i>Fusarium</i> trichothecenes are among the mycotoxins of most concern to food and feed safety. Production of these mycotoxins and presence of the trichothecene biosynthetic gene (<i>TRI</i>) cluster have been confirmed in only two multispecies lineages of <i>Fusarium&...
