Balancing selection for aflatoxin in Aspergillus flavus is maintained through interference competition with, and fungivory by insects

The role of microbial secondary metabolites in the ecology of the organisms that produce them remains poorly understood. Variation in aflatoxin production by Aspergillus flavus is maintained by balancing selection, but the ecological function and impact on fungal fitness of this compound are unknown...
