“…They inhibit the 14α‐sterol demethylase used for synthesizing the essential mycosterol called ergosterol that is encoded by the CYP51 gene (Curvers, Pycke, Kyndt, Haesaert, & Gheysen, ; Duan et al, ; Zhan, Stefanato, & McDonald, ). The DMI fungicides‐resistance mechanism is due to the point mutations of the CYP51 gene as seen in many plant pathogens, for example F. graminearum , Zymoseptoria tritici and Parastagonospora nodorum (Duan et al, ; Leroux, Albertini, Gautier, Gredt, & Walker, ; Pereira, Mcdonald, & Brunner, ; Taher et al, ; Talas & Mcdonald, ; Wieczorek et al, ). Benzimidazole fungicides bind to β‐tubulin to inhibit mycelial growth of plant pathogenic fungi, and the resistance mechanism is the point mutation of amino acids encoding the β‐tubulin in Botrytis cinerea and Sclerotinia sclerotiorum (Liu et al, , ; Zhu, Zhou, Li, Zhu, & Ma, ), or amino acids encoding the β 2 ‐tubulin gene in F. graminearum (Liu, Duan, Ge, Chen, & Zhou, ; Liu et al, ).…”
