Pre-harvest contamination of forage maize by mycotoxin producing  Fusarium  species was investigated in the UK in 2011 and 2012. A total of 15  Fusarium  species were identified from a collection of 1,761  Fusarium  isolates recovered from maize stalks and kernels. This study characterized the diversity of  Fusarium  species present in forage maize in the UK. The predominant species detected were  F. graminearum  (32.9%) and  F. culmorum  (34.1%). Along with those species;  F. avenacem, F. cerealis, F. equiseti, F. langsethiae, F. napiforme, F. oxysporum, F. poae, F. proliferatum, F. scripi, F. solani, F. subglutinans, F. tricinctum  and,  F. verticillioides  were occasionally isolated. The trichothecene genotypes for  F. graminearum  were determined to be 84.9% deoxynivalenol (DON) and 15.0% nivalenol (NIV) while  F. culmorum  isolates were determined to have 24.9% DON and 75.1% NIV genotypes. A Bayesian model-based clustering method with nine variable number of tandem repeat markers was used to evaluate the population genetic structure of 277  F. graminearum  isolates from the maize and wheat in the UK. There were three genetic clusters detected which were DON in maize, NIV in maize and DON in wheat. There were high admixture probabilities for 14.1% of the isolates in the populations. In conclusion, increased maize production in the UK and the high admixture rates in a significant portion of  F. graminearum  populations in maize and wheat will contribute to a new pathogen population which will further complicate breeding strategies for tolerance or resistance to this pathogen in both crops.
