Analysis of preharvest meteorological conditions in relation to concentration of fumonisins in kernels of two genetically different maize hybrids
Resumen
The effects of meteorological conditions around silking (Si) and physiological maturity (PM) on production of fumonisins (FB=FB1 + FB2) in maize kernels were analyzed. Kernel FB contents were determined on kernel samples collected from an experimental susceptible hybrid (n = 35) and a Bt commercial hybrid (n = 23) planted in several growing seasons/sites from the Argentinean Pampas. Considering the effect of genetic divergence of the two maize hybrids,

The effects of meteorological conditions around silking (Si) and physiological maturity (PM) on production of fumonisins (FB=FB1 + FB2) in maize kernels were analyzed. Kernel FB contents were determined on kernel samples collected from an experimental susceptible hybrid (n = 35) and a Bt commercial hybrid (n = 23) planted in several growing seasons/sites from the Argentinean Pampas. Considering the effect of genetic divergence of the two maize hybrids, total kernel FB concentrations (n = 52) binary coded, were predicted appropriately by weather-based logistic regression models but underestimated in some samples severely contaminated with FB. After removing these misclassified cases that registered maximum values of a drought-heat stress index (DI) calculated over 30 days around Si, and weather conditions (assessed by weather interactive components) conducive to infection/production of FB in PM, new logistic models were fitted. These new models improved their predictive ability indices. It was remarkable a model including the discrete genetic variable and the weather variable associated with the simultaneous occurrence of precipitation, temperature between 19.5–33 °C and relative humidity >70%, required for fungal infection in Si. Models that also included weather variables calculated in PM and associated with the kernel drying rate and fungal infection, did not result in better prediction outcomes. Opposite to the general trend, the occurrence of both severe heat-drought stress around Si and favorable weather around PM led to high kernel FB contents. We hypothesize that husk shortening by stress at silking might expose ears, promoting Fusarium verticillioides colonization/FB synthesis in late stages of kernel development and maturity, whenever favorable environmental conditions for both processes prevail.
