The Role of Aflatoxins in <em>Aspergillus flavus</em> Resistance to Stress
Aspergillus section Flavi produce the aflatoxins, secondary metabolites toxic to humans and animals. Why do these fungi produce aflatoxins? They do not have a clear role in pathogenicity or in niche competition. Aspergillus employs a considerable amount of energy to synthesize them: more than 20 enz...
