Fusarium mycotoxins are secondary metabolites of microscopic filamentous fungi of Fusarium genus. This paper summarises current knowledge on the field of mycotoxin contamination of barley, mycotoxin transfer into malt and compares them with results achieved within 2005-2008 years on the set of 12 spring barley cultivars grown in low-input and conventional agricultural systems in Žabčice a Kroměříž.Fusarium mycotoxins are secondary metabolites of microscopic filamentous fungi of Fusarium genus.
