  1. Unveiling the spatial distribution of aflatoxin B1 and plant defense metabolites in maize using AP‐SMALDI mass spectrometry imaging

    • The Plant Journal

    • To cope with the presence of unfavorable compounds, plants are capable to biotransform xenobiotics, translocate both parent compounds and metabolites, perform compartmentation and segregation at cellular or tissue level. Such a scenario also applies to mycotoxins, fungal secondary metabolites with a preeminent role in plant infection. In this work, we aimed to describe the effect of the interplay between Zea mays and aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) at the tissue and organ level.
