Deoxynivalenol (DON) contamination, expressed in µg/g, in the first year of experiment (2007).
| Stage of growth | Part of plant | Blank | FG | FG oat |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Shoots of 1–2 cm | Crown + Stem | Nd | 0.3 | 0.2 |
| second internode | Crown + Stem | 2.3 | 2.0 | 0.8 |
| Milky ripening | Crown + Stem | 0.2 | 14.6 | 27.0 |
| Heads | Nd | 0.9 | 0.3 | |
| Vitreous ripening | Kernels | Nd | 0.1 | 0.2 |
Notes: FG = wheat contaminated by F. graminearum; FG oat = wheat in proximity of oat kernels contaminated by F. graminearum; Nd = not detected (LOD = 0.02 µg/g for kernels, 0.05 µg/g for other plant materials).
