BAUTISTA ESPINOZA, María Elpidia et al. Fungi Associated to Wheat Grain Grown in Areas of Central Mexico. Rev. mex. fitopatol [online]. 2011, vol.29, n.2, pp.175-177. ISSN 2007-8080.

Fungi were isolated from grain of eight bread wheat varieties sown under rainfed conditions in five locations in Mexico's Central Valleys, and from a commercial field under irrigation in Roque, Guanajuato in 2005. The phytopathogenic fungi identified were: Fusarium graminearum, F. avenaceum, F. equiseti, F. nivale, F. moniliforme, F. solani, F. oxysporum, Helminthosporium sativum and H. spiciferum; and the saprophytes Alternaria sp., Aspergillus sp., Rhizopus sp., Penicillium sp., Nigrospora sp., and Stemphylium sp. The highest fungal frequency, mostly saprophytes, was found in rainfed wheat grain.
