Abstract This study aimed to evaluate the effects of inoculants on the microbial community and mycotoxins contamination of corn silage during aerobic exposure. Whole-crop corn infected with or without mycotoxigenic fungi were ensiled with Lentilactobacillus buchneri (LB, 1.0 × 10 6 cfu/g fresh weight (FW)), Lactiplantibacillus plantarum (LP, 1.0 × 10 6 cfu/g FW), or LBLP at 1.0 × 10 6 cfu/g FW each. The concentration of acetic acid (AcA) ( P < 0.05) in LB and LBLP silages was higher than in control (C) and LP of non-fungal infection (NFI) silages. The fungal infection resulted in a larger increase of zearalenone (ZEN, P = 0.01), fumonisin B 1 (FUB 1 , P = 0.02), and fumonisin B 2 (FUB 2 , P = 0.02). The relative abundance (RA) of Issatchenkia in NFI was higher ( P < 0.001) than FI silages, whereas the RA of Kazachstania ( P < 0.001), Zygosaccharomyces ( P = 0.047), and Candida ( P = 0.025) in NFI were lower than these of FI silages. The aerobic stability was improved by the application of LB and LBLP as compared with the C of NFI silages. The LB and LBLP had the potential to improve aerobic stability and alleviate mycotoxins contamination of non-fungal infected corn silages. Graphical Abstract
