| This experimant was conducted at the drying and thrushing of maize cob mill. Miucstry of Agriculture, Baghdad and the Mycotoxins Laboratory, Plant protection Dep.. Coll. or Agriculture , Uui. of Baghdad . to evaluate the efficiency of phylex at concentration of 1600 g./ton grain which was diluatcd with 5 liter of water before spraying , compared with dusting 2% urea for controlling AFIa Bl in stored inaizegraiu . Results of the isolation and ideultificetion that the phylex has a asupcrior efficiency to prevent tiic infection with any fungi in to the stored maize grain, While the following fungus : Allernaria alternata, Aspergillus flavus, A. t+iigar, Curvularia spp, Clutlosparium spp, Fiisariuin moiiilifornte, Mucor spp, Penicillium spp, Rliizopus spp., Tricliodenua spp. and many bacteria, which dose not ideutified at maize grain in the control treatment. The highest infection ratio in maize grain was with A.flavus which reached 54 % and 68 % in control treatment at 14 % and 21.6 % relative humidity respectively followed by F. moniliforme at a ratio of 20.85 % and 35.66 % for the same percentage relative humidity respectively . A. nigur , Penicillium. spp. and other fungus were found at less ratio treated maize garins. Spraying Phylex and dusting with 2 % urea significantly reduce the percentage of the contamination with Afia Bl which is studied by HPLC.There was a significant differences between phylex and urea as compared with control . phylex reduced the percentage of contamination With Afia Bl from 20.30 , 60 ppm to (10.05 , 19.29 , 33.02) and (11.65 , 20.58 , 42.86) ppm for both level of relative humidity respectively after one month storage , While urea reduce the same level mean above to (12.38 , 20.83 , 41.98) and (14.63 , 21.17 , 46.19)ppm for both level of relative humidity respectively for the same period . |
