N2 - In a recent article in Journal of Food Protection,
Palencia and co-workers (34) published a survey on black
Aspergillus species isolated from maize and peanuts
reporting the production of some mycotoxins. An important
claim in the article is their strains of Aspergillus niger
produce fumonisins B1 and B3. However, for many reasons,
we consider the production of these two fumonisin isomers
unlikely.
