Mycotoxins in food in West Africa: current situation and possibilities of controlling it (2003, background): “Avantaggio et al. (2002) found that extremely high fumonisin contamination levels were found in maize ears visibly damaged by insects, and recommended field control of insects to reduce fumonisin contamination.”
Impact of mycotoxins on humans and animals (2011, background): “Avantaggio et al. (2002) found that insect damage of maize is good predictor of Fusarium mycotoxins contamination.”

Epidemiology of Fusarium Diseases and their Mycotoxins in Maize Ears (2003, background): “As early as 1991, Lew et al. predicted, ‘measures to combat the European corn borer will mainly reduce moniliformin and fumonisin contamination, but will affect zearalenone, deoxynivalenol and nivalenol contents of the ears to a much lesser extent.’ Recent results have confirmed the association of m”
