Fusarin
Fusarins are a class of mycotoxins produced mainly by fungi of the genus Fusarium, which can infect agriculturally important crops such as wheat, barley, oats, rye, and corn.[1] Chemically, they are polyketides that are also derived from amino acids.[2]
Some members of the class, particularly fusarin C, are
mutagenic.[3]
