This article aims to evaluate deoxynivalenol occurrence in triticale crops in Romania in years with extreme weather events (2012: Siberian anticyclone with cold waves and heavy snowfall; 2013 and 2014: “Vb” cyclones with heavy precipitation and floods in spring). The deoxynivalenol level in triticale samples (N = 236) was quantified by ELISA. In Romania, the extreme weather events favoured deoxynivalenol occurrence in triticale in Transylvania and the southern hilly area (44–47°N, 22–25°E) with a humid/balanced-humid temperate continental climate, luvisols and high/very high risk of floods. Maximum deoxynivalenol contamination was lower in the other regions, although heavy precipitation in May–July 2014 was higher, with chernozems having higher aridity. Multivariate analysis of the factors influencing deoxynivalenol occurrence in triticale showed at least a significant correlation for all components of variation source (agricultural year, agricultural region, average of deoxynivalenol, average air temperature, cumulative precipitation, soil moisture reserve, aridity indices) (p-value < 0.05). The spatial and geographic distribution of deoxynivalenol in cereals in the countries affected by the 2012–2014 extreme weather events revealed a higher contamination in Central Europe compared to southeastern and eastern Europe. Deoxynivalenol occurrence in cereals was favoured by local and regional agroclimatic factors and was amplified by extreme weather events.

“…The areas of prevalence of each mycotoxin are currently changing, due to climate change, and a wide variability in the quality and quantity of contamination has recently been reported [35,36], suggesting that mycotoxins are the most important food safety hazard affected by climate change [37]. Aflatoxins, still mentioned as a cause of death in African countries [38][39][40][41][42] are now spreading over a wider area, especially in Europe [43][44][45][46], and an increase in the risk of contamination has also been predicted in the future [47].…”

Among plant fungal diseases, those affecting cereals represent a huge problem in terms of food security and safety. Cereals, such as maize and wheat, are very often targets of mycotoxigenic fungi. The limited availability of chemical plant protection products and physical methods to control mycotoxigenic fungi and to reduce food and feed mycotoxin contamination fosters alternative approaches, such as the use of beneficial fungi as an active ingredient of biological control products. Competitive interactions, including both exploitation and interference competition, between pathogenic and beneficial fungi, are generally recognized as mechanisms to control plant pathogens populations and to manage plant diseases. In the present review, two examples concerning the use of competitive beneficial filamentous fungi for the management of cereal diseases are discussed. The authors retrace the history of the well-established use of non-aflatoxigenic isolates of Aspergillus flavus to prevent aflatoxin contamination in maize and give an overview of the potential use of competitive beneficial filamentous fungi to manage Fusarium Head Blight on wheat and mitigate fusaria toxin contamination. Although important steps have been made towards the development of microorganisms as active ingredients of plant protection products, a reasoned revision of the registration rules is needed to significantly reduce the chemical based plant protection products in agriculture.

“…In 2013-2015, research into mycotoxins in cereals in the area of Bosnia and Herzegovina investigated a total of 58 barley samples for the presence of mycotoxins DON, ZEN, and fumonisins by the ELISA method. The published data showed that DON was detected totally in 22 samples (38%) in quantifiable concentrations with the average content of 365 µg/kg and the highest detected values of 578 µg/kg, ZEN was found in 20 samples (34%) with the highest measured concentration of 84 µg/kg (Pleadin et al 2017). We can state that considering different weather conditions and used analytical methods the occurrence of the studied mycotoxins is comparable.…”

“…Modified forms of mycotoxins represent new research trends (Freire & Sant'ana 2018). Cereals may be simultaneously contaminated with two or more mycotoxins (Běláková et al 2014;Pleadin et al 2013Pleadin et al , 2017, detection of one mycotoxin may indicate the presence of another, and this contamination influences the cumulative toxic effect.…”

In 2012–2017, the occurrence of deoxynivalenol, zearalenone and T-2 toxin in 592 samples of malting barley from different regions of the Czech Republic was studied using the ELISA immunochemical method. On average, the total content of positive samples was 18.6% for deoxynivalenol (DON), 9.5% for zearalenone (ZEN) and 20.5% for T-2 toxin. The highest values measured were 917 μg/kg for DON (2012), 42 μg/kg for ZEN (2017) and 199 μg/kg for T-2 toxin (2013). The maximal DON and ZEN contents in cereals intended for food production are limited by the Commission Regulation (EC) No. 1881/2006, the EU limit from 2013 applies for the sum of T-2 and HT-2 toxins. Concentrations of any of the mycotoxins studied did not exceed the EU limit in any barley samples.
