treatment	no. of infected kernels (growth inhibition ratio)	AF (μg/kg)
control (exposed to BM344-1)	0	n.d*
BM344-1 +A. flavus	11 ± 1.0^b (51%)	25.34 ± 6.72^b
TSA +A. flavus	22 ± 0.0^a(2%)	99.85 ± 36.21^a

Surface-disinfected maize ears were inoculated with A. flavus spores and exposed to B. megaterium BM344-1 volatiles. The values in each column represent the mean ± SD of three replicates, and the different superscript letter indicates the significant difference at p ≤ 0.05. *n.d = not detected.
