Seeds of twenty-two cowpea (Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp) lines/cultivars were inoculated with Aspergillus parasiticus (Link) (NRRL 3145) and aflatoxin production was evaluated. All the cowpea samples were susceptible to Aspergillus infection and subsequent aflatoxin production. The amount of aflatoxin produced ranged between 466.6 micrograms/kg to 1 806 micrograms/kg in the case of B (B1 + B2) and 20.8 micrograms/kg to 82.7 micrograms/kg of seed in the case of G (G1 + G2). On the basis of the amount of aflatoxin produced on different samples, it is evident that there is at least partial resistance to aflatoxin production in the tested cowpea lines/cultivars. On the basis of the results obtained in this investigation it is apparent that further selection and breeding could provide cowpea cultivars which are resistant to A. parasiticus infection and aflatoxin production.
用寄生曲霉（Link）（NRRL 3145）接种22个豇豆（Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp）品系/品种的种子，并评估黄曲霉毒素的产生情况。所有豇豆样品均易受曲霉感染并随后产生黄曲霉毒素。在B（B1 + B2）情况下，产生的黄曲霉毒素量在466.6微克/千克至1806微克/千克之间，而在G（G1 + G2）情况下，种子中的黄曲霉毒素量在20.8微克/千克至82.7微克/千克之间。根据不同样品产生的黄曲霉毒素量，很明显，在测试的豇豆品系/品种中至少存在对黄曲霉毒素产生的部分抗性。根据本研究获得的结果，显然进一步的选择和育种可以提供对寄生曲霉感染和黄曲霉毒素产生具有抗性的豇豆品种。
