Wheat represents one of the most widely consumed cereals worldwide. Cultivated in winter and spring, it is vulnerable to an array of different pathogens, including fungi, which are managed largely through the in-field application of fungicides. During this study, a 4-year field investigation (2018-2021) was performed in France, aiming to assess the efficacy of fungicide treatment to reduce mycotoxin contamination in common and durum wheat. Several different commercially available fungicides were applied via sprayers. Concentrations of mycotoxins and fungal metabolites in wheat were determined using a multi-analyte liquid-chromatography-tandem-mass-spectrometry-based method. The highest contamination levels and strongest effects of fungicides were observed in 2018, followed by 2021. A significant fungicide-mediated reduction was observed for the trichothecenes deoxynivalenol, deoxynivalenol-3-glucoside, nivalenol, and nivalenol-3-glucoside. Furthermore, fungicide treatment also reduced levels of culmorin and its hydroxy metabolites 5- and 15-hydroxy-culmorin, as well as aurofusarin. Interestingly, the metabolite infectopyron was increased following fungicide treatment. In conclusion, fungicide treatment was effective in reducing mycotoxin levels in wheat. However, as complete prevention of mycotoxin contamination was not achieved, fungicide treatment should always be combined with other pre- and post-harvest mycotoxin mitigation strategies to improve food and feed safety.
小麦是全球范围内广泛消费的主要谷物之一。冬春两季种植,易受多种不同病原体侵害,包括真菌。这些真菌主要通过田间施用药剂进行防治。在本研究中,法国进行了为期 4 年的田间调查(2018-2021 年),旨在评估杀菌剂处理对降低普通小麦和硬粒小麦中真菌毒素污染的效果。通过喷雾器施用到田间的几种不同的市售杀菌剂。采用基于多分析物液相色谱-串联质谱的方法测定小麦中真菌毒素和真菌代谢物的浓度。2018 年和 2021 年观察到最高的污染水平和最强的杀菌剂效果。三脱氧辛醇、脱氧辛醇-3-葡萄糖苷、伏马菌素和伏马菌素-3-葡萄糖苷的脱毒效果明显。此外,杀菌剂处理还降低了 culmorin 及其羟基代谢物 5-和 15-羟基-culmorin 以及金毒素的水平。有趣的是,杀菌剂处理后,代谢物 infectopyron 的水平增加。总之,杀菌剂处理有效降低了小麦中的真菌毒素水平。然而,由于未能完全防止真菌毒素污染,杀菌剂处理应始终与其他收获前和收获后真菌毒素缓解策略相结合,以提高食品和饲料安全。
