1989
Kannaiyan, J. | Sandhu, R.S. | Phiri, A.L.
In Zambia, groundnut kernels meant for export are routinely monitored for aflatoxin contamination. Since 1979, 6.3 per cent of the 28410 samples analyzed had contamination levels of more than 5 micro g/kg aflatoxin. A 2-year study with promising varieties revealed the variability of Aspergillus flavus seed infection. Seed treatment with Benlate/Labilite at 3 g/kg seed was found to control A. flavus in groundnut seed and can improve crop stand
