AB  - Aspergillus flavus is the main producer of aflatoxin B1, one of the most toxic contaminants
of food and feed. With global warming, climate conditions have become favourable for aflatoxin
contamination of agricultural products in several European countries, including Serbia. The
infection of maize with A. flavus, and aflatoxin synthesis can be controlled and reduced by
application of a biocontrol product based on non‐toxigenic strains of A. flavus. Biological control
relies on competition between atoxigenic and toxigenic strains. This is the most commonly used
biological control mechanism of aflatoxin contamination in maize in countries where aflatoxins
pose a significant threat. Mytoolbox Af01, a native atoxigenic A. flavus strain, was obtained from
maize grown in Serbia and used to produce a biocontrol product that was applied in irrigated and
non‐irrigated Serbian fields during 2016 and 2017. The application of this biocontrol product
reduced aflatoxin levels in maize kernels (51–83%). The biocontrol treatment had a highly
significant effect of reducing total aflatoxin contamination by 73%. This study showed that
aflatoxin contamination control in Serbian maize can be achieved through biological control
methods using atoxigenic A. flavus strains.

AB  - Emerging mycotoxins such as moniliformin (MON), enniatins (ENs), beauvericin (BEA), and fusaproliferin (FUS) may contaminate maize and negatively influence the yield and quality of grain. The aim of this study was to determine the content of emerging Fusarium mycotoxins in Serbian maize from the 2016, 2017, and 2018 harvests. A total of 190 samples from commercial maize production operations in Serbia were analyzed for the presence of MON, ENs, BEA, and FUS using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). The obtained results were interpreted together with weather data from each year. MON, BEA, and FUS were major contaminants, while other emerging mycotoxins were not detected or were found in fewer samples (<20%). Overall contamination was highest in 2016 when MON and BEA were found in 50–80% of samples. In 2017 and 2018, high levels of MON, FUS, and BEA were detected in regions with high precipitation and warm weather during the silking phase of maize (July and the beginning of August), when the plants are most susceptible to Fusarium infections. Since environmental conditions in Serbia are favorable for the occurrence of mycotoxigenic fungi, monitoring Fusarium toxins is essential for the production of safe food and feed.
