Abstract

Harvested nonshelled and shelled peanuts of accessions, P. seed infection of 2-3% by Aspergillus spp. of the A. flavus I. 337409 and P. I. 337394 F, previously reported to be group. All genotypes had appreciable levels of aflatoxins resistant to penetration and colonization by Aspergillus spp. after 9-10 days of storage in relative humidities of 87-95% at of the A. flavus group, were held under high humidity 23-26 C. Accession P. I. 337394 F accumulated aflatoxins at conditions and the aflatoxin levels that developed were 80±2% RH after 9 days at 23 C.
