Toxin B — trichothecene deoxynivalenol (DON) is the most frequent Fusarium mycotoxin in Fusarium head blight (FHB) disease produced by Fusarium fungi. Thirty-one samples of naturally cultivated winter wheat were collected from different localities in Slovakia and evaluated for DON content, and after an artificial inoculation twelve of winter wheat cultivars were evaluated for FHB, fusarium damaged kernels (FDK) and DON content (resistance Type I and II) during two years. Plants were inoculated at anthesis with a conidial suspension of Fusarium culmorum (W. G. Smith) Sacc. The highest mean contents of DON 1.641 ppm were found in produced potato region (PPR) and 1.654 ppm in produced sugar beet region (PSBR). A positive correlation was found between DON content and rainfall, and a negative correlation was found between content of DON and temperature. Lower positive correlations were found between the contents of DON in 2003 and 2004 in the resistance Type I and Type II in twelve artificially infected cultivars. The significant positive correlations in content of DON were found between resistance Type I and Type II in the years 2003 and 2004. The lowest content of DON was found in the cultivars Alka, Malyska and the highest one in the cultivars Vanda and Boka. The positive correlation between the content of DON and FDK (in %) in head (average 2003 and 2004 years) from artificially infected and analysed cultivars was statistically significant in both resistances Type I and Type II.
