Answer:

The toxins of fungal origin are called mycotoxins.

Explanation:

These are the metabolic products of fungus. These are usually toxic to animals and humans. They are very strong pharmacologically and also capable of killing foreign cells hence they are used widely as antibiotics.

During the world wars, these agents are used as biological agents. Some of them are even capable of the death of a human. Candida is one of the fungi which results in disease due to the release of such toxins.
