Agronomic Factors Influencing the Scale of <i>Fusarium</i> Mycotoxin Contamination of Oats

Seven agronomic factors (crop season, farming system, harvest date, moisture, county, oat variety, and previous crop) were recorded for 202 oat crops grown across Ireland, and samples were analysed by LC-MS/MS for four major <i>Fusarium</i> mycotoxins: deoxynivalenol (DON), zearalenone (...
