Change of fungal infection during wheat storage at different conditions.

Author(s) : YAHYA S. A. al-

Summary

Fungal infection was determined during storage of wheat under four grain moisture contents 15, 18, 21 and 24%, four temperature levels 4, 15, 25 and 40 °C and three levels of mechanical damage 0, 15, and 30%. After storage times giving 0.25, 0.5 and 1% dry matter loss, fungal infection was determined in each treatment. In general, fungal infection increased more slowly at low grain moisture, low temperature and low levels of mechanical damage. Temperature had a greater effect on fungal infection than moisture content had.
