a
Left‐censored data not reported because the table reports the sum of DON, 3‐Ac‐DON, 15‐Ac‐DON and DON‐3‐glucoside.
b
The 95th percentile obtained on occurrence data with fewer than 60 analytical results may not be statistically robust (EFSA, 2011b) and therefore not reported in the table and replaced by a dash.
