Abstract :
Incidence of mycotoxigenic fungi and elaboration of different mycotoxins in feed cakes in the Godavari belt region of A.P was assessed. In all 23 fungal species representing 12 genera could be detected. Many of the feed cakes ware highly infested by species of Aspergillus, Penicillium and Fusarium, besides other fungi. Groundnut cake supported maximum number of fungi with 23 fungal species representing 12 genera, while coconut cake and cotton seed cake with supported comparatively less number of moulds. No positive correlation could be observed among percentage of incidence, frequency and abundance of different fungi. Mycotoxins like aflatoxins, sterigmatocystin, ochratoxin A, patulin, citrinin, cyclopiazonic acid, zearalenone, satratoxin, trichothecene mycotoxins were potential contaminates of these cakes.
