Fusarium verticillioides is the most commonly reported fungal species infecting maize (Zea mays).^{[citation needed]} Fusarium verticillioides is the accepted name of the species, which was also known as Fusarium moniliforme. The species has also been described as mating population A of the Fusarium fujikuroi species complex (formally known as Gibberella fujikuroi species complex).^[1] F. verticllioides produces the mutagenic chemical compound fusarin C.^[2] F. verticillioides produces a group of disease-causing mycotoxins—fumonisins—on infected kernels.^[3]
