Apparent synergy between glyphosate application and Fusarium and other mold species.
This page is devoted to ongoing research from the early 1980's that shows a relationship between the application of glyphosate and the resultant growth of Fusarium and other toxic fungi in various media. Taken as a whole, these papers indicate that Fusarium and other toxic fungi can be stimulated in soils as a result of glyphosate applications. These toxic molds could then parasitize crops, producing noticeably lower yields and contaminate the soils that they are grown on with mycotoxins-not so much as a direct effect of glyphosate, but by the secondary effects of an glyphosate-stimulated growth of mycotoxin-producing Fusaria and other toxic molds.
