Temperature and water activity influence on simultaneous production of AAL toxins by Alternaria arborescens on tomato medium
Alternaria spp. have been reported to be the most frequent phytopathogenic fungi invading tomatoes. Certain species are capable of producing several mycotoxins in infected plants and in agricultural commodities. AAL toxins are produced by Alternaria arborescens, which is the causal agent of tomato s...

The objective of this study was to determine the effect of water activity (aw, 0.995, and 0.950) and temperature (6, 15, 20, 25 and 30 °C) on simultaneous AAL toxins production by Alternaria arborescens. The maximum accumulation of AAL toxins occurred at 0.995 aw after 40 days of incubation at 30 °C.
