Description Aflatoxin contamination seriously affects the edible quality of groundnuts and its
products rendering them unfit for human and livestock consumption. Various surveys
conducted in different parts of India have shown high aflatoxin levels in groundnut food
products ( Gewande,1997). Terminal droughts are often a predisposing factor for aflatoxin
contamination in groundnut. In the present study the genotypic variation in aflatoxin
contamination under terminal moisture stress is examined
