Fitness Cost of Aflatoxin Production in <named-content content-type="genus-species">Aspergillus flavus</named-content> When Competing with Soil Microbes Could Maintain Balancing Selection

ABSTRACT Selective forces that maintain the polymorphism for aflatoxigenic and nonaflatoxigenic individuals of Aspergillus flavus are largely unknown. As soils are widely considered the natural habitat of A. flavus, we hypothesized that aflatoxin production would confer a fitness advantage in the so...
