The genetic connections among Brassica species have been identified and verified through experimental crosses between diploid and/or tetraploid Brassica crops, as well as microscopic or karyotyping examination during the synapsis stage of meiosis in these hybrids (Cheng et al. 2014; Zhang et al. 2021a). For instance, F1 plants with a chromosome count of n =…

Around 300–400 fungal species produce mycotoxins, which are toxic metabolites that contaminate agricultural products and pose significant health risks to livestock, poultry, and humans, even at extremely low concentrations (Latham, 2023). Among them, aflatoxins produced by Aspergillus species (Figure 1) are particularly dangerous, contaminating cereals, oilseeds, spices, and nuts during both cultivation and storage. Aflatoxins,…
