Transcriptome Sequencing Revealed an Inhibitory Mechanism of Aspergillus flavus Asexual Development and Aflatoxin Metabolism by Soy-Fermenting Non-Aflatoxigenic Aspergillus.

ABSTRACT: Aflatoxins (AFs) have always been regarded as the most effective carcinogens, posing a great threat to agriculture, food safety, and human health. Aspergillus flavus is the major producer of aflatoxin contamination in crops. The prevention and control of A. flavus and aflatoxin continues to be a global problem. In this study, we demonstrated that the cell-free culture filtrate of Aspergillus oryzae and a non-aflatoxigenic A. flavus can effectively inhibit the production of AFB1 and the growth and reproduction of A. flavus, indicating that both of the non-aflatoxigenic Aspergillus strains secrete inhibitory compounds. Further transcriptome sequencing was performed to analyze the inhibitory mechanism of A. flavus treated with fermenting cultur
