Abstract
Kinetics of fungal spread and Trichothecenes B (TCT B) contamination were achieved using four hybrids of Maize characterized by different levels of resistance. Inoculation was performed using a toxigenic Fusarium graminearum strain 5 days after flowering into the silk channel. In addition, phenolic acids composition was evaluated at the different grain filling stages for the four hybrids. Results are discussed with regards to a potential involvement of phenolic acids in limitation of toxins accumulation and resistance level.
