Evaluation of Sclerotinia sclerotiorum as a potential mycotoxin producer on soybeans.

A Ciegler, K A Burbridge, J Ciegler and C W Hesseltine

ABSTRACT

Solvent extracts of Sclerotinia sclerotiorum sclerotia were nontoxic to mice and chicken embryos; psoralens were not detected. Solvent extracts of soybeans inoculated with 10 strains of S. sclerotiorum were toxic on injection but nontoxic on per os administration to mice. The presence of chlorinated hydrocarbons in the soybeans may partially help explain toxicity by intraperitineal injection.
