Unfortunately, in both countries, fungal species (Fusaria, Aspergilli, Penicillia, etc.) that produce various mycotoxins on cereals, including maize grains, are a growing concern. The situation is complicated because these fungal species and their toxins can appear not only on cereals but also on other crops. Despite the prevalence of mycotoxins in both countries, studies show higher exposure risks and contamination above tolerable levels for human consumption in Tanzania to Hungary, with Tanzania observing acute aflatoxicosis.application/pdfCopyright (c) 2022 Acta Agraria Debreceniensishttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0Mycotoxinstoxin-producing fungimycotoxin contaminationcerealsinfo:eu-repo/semantics/article
