Fungus research. Researcher examining plates of Aspergillus flavus fugus under a microscope. Many strains of A. flavus produce aflatoxins, a form of mycotoxin that can destroy plant crops and harm humans. Here different strains are being examined to determine which produce the most aflatoxin and which produce none at all. Photographed at the University of Arizona, USA.
