The present book is the outcome of our studies on mycotoxins during last 20 years on the incidence of mycotoxins, biological activates and their management. However, little information is available on this group of mycotoxins. Therefore, an attempt is made to document the chemical diversity and biological activates under diverse environmental conditions. Exposed storage of fodder and inevitable contamination of feeds with mycotoxins may results in complex and vulnerable situation for mycotoxin elaboration. Management of mycotoxins problem in feeds and fodders is not only problematic but also intricate. In view of emerging nature of tremorgenic mycotoxins, their incidence and biological activities are yet to be established. In depth studies are needed which may unravel many facts facilitating the effective management of these mycotoxins and protect the health of pet animals and livestock. Therefore, an attempt has been made to present the understanding of this group of mycotoxins in the light of our investigations. However, much more intensive and integrated studies are needed to unravel many facets of their biological activities.
