Article Synopsis
- Pistachio nuts are important for their nutritional value and health benefits, but they face risks from fungal contamination, particularly from toxic fungi species.
- Aspergillus flavus and Aspergillus niger are the most common fungi found on pistachios, known for producing harmful mycotoxins like aflatoxins and ochratoxins.
- This study focuses on monitoring fungal populations in Turkish pistachio samples, revealing mixed strains of A. flavus, including both aflatoxin producers and non-producers, and identifying a new genotype among the non-producing strains.
