MOLECULAR MECHANISMS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE NONAFLATOXIGENICITY OF FOOD-GRADE A. SOJAE

Objective

Specific objectives are to utilize the basic information obtained from aflatoxin biosynthesis (1) to identify the defects in the Aspergillus sojae gene homologs and (2) to determine the molecular basis of why A. sojae does not produce aflatoxins.
