  1. Volatiles of antagonistic soil yeasts inhibit growth and aflatoxin production of Aspergillus flavus

    • Microbiological Research

    • Minimizing Aspergillus flavus growth is an effective strategy to mitigate aflatoxin contamination in food and agricultural products. In the present investigation, we attempted to utilize soil-associated yeasts from the Western and Eastern Ghats of India against A. flavus to reduce aflatoxin contamination. Forty-five yeast isolates were screened against A. flavus using overlay and dual plate assays.
