Abstract:Triazole fungicides, which are sterol demethylation inhibitors, have become the primary systemic fungicides applied to cucurbits to control gummy stem blight caused by Didymella bryoniae. Isolates of D. bryoniae from South Carolina that were never exposed to tebuconazole or exposed for several years were tested for sensitivity to tebuconazole and difenoconazole. Colony diameters, percentage germination of ascospores and conidia, and germ tube lengths were measured when isolates were grown on agar amended with … Show more
“…The relatively small ranges and resistance factors for cyprodinil and fludioxonil for isolates of D. bryoniae that never were exposed to these fungicides was similar to the ranges (0.03 to 0.25) and resistance factors (2.7 to 14.2) for D. bryoniae isolates never exposed to boscalid or difenoconazole (Keinath 2009;Keinath and Hansen 2013;Thomas et al 2012b). The ranges for baseline isolates from South Carolina and other states tested for sensitivity to azoxystrobin and tebuconazole were 10 and 19 times greater, respectively, than the range for cyprodinil (Keinath 2008;Keinath and Hansen 2013).…”

“…Isolates for the baseline study were collected between 1994 and 2008 to preclude exposure to cyprodinil and fludioxonil (Keinath 2009;Keinath and Hansen 2013). For this study, 146 isolates of D. bryoniae were selected from an extensive, existing culture collection.…”

“…Cyprodinil (99% technical grade) and fludioxonil (98% technical grade) (supplied by Syngenta Crop Protection) were dissolved in acetone and ethanol, respectively, to make stock solutions of 2.0 and 10.0 mg/liter (Baroffio et al 2003;Hilber and Schüepp 1996). Relative colony diameter was calculated by dividing the mean colony diameter on each fungicide-amended plate by the mean colony diameter across the two nonamended plates for each isolate (Keinath and Hansen 2013). Each liter of fungicide-amended medium received additional solvent to bring the final concentration to 1.0 ml/liter.…”

“…[27] Tebuconazole is a C-14 demethylation inhibitor (DMI) of a biosynthetic step that occurs during the conversion of lanosterol to ergosterol, the final product of fungal sterol synthesis. [28] According to Fuchs and Drandarevski, [29] development of DMI resistance under practical conditions would be unlikely since laboratory DMI resistant mutants had reduced pathogenicity.…”
A study of the in vitro sensitivity of 10 isolates of Didymella applanata to copper hydroxide, dithianon, fluazinam, tebuconazole and pyraclostrobin, was conducted. The isolates were derived from diseased raspberry canes sampled during 2013 at five localities in western part of Serbia, known as the main raspberry growing region of the country. Prior to sensitivity testing experimental conditions for radial growth assay were optimized. The results showed that the temperature of 22 °C, oatmeal agar medium and 12/12 hrs light/ darkness light regimen provided the best conditions for sensitivity tests. Most of D. applanata isolates were sensitive to the tested fungicides. The narrowest range of EC50 values was recorded for tebuconazole (1.42-2.66 mg L(-1)). The widest range of EC50 values was obtained for pyraclostrobin, ranging from 0.17 mg L(-1) to 55.33 mg L(-1). The EC50 values for the studied isolates were 39.48-51.19 mg L(-1) for copper hydroxide, 12.12-18.73 mg L(-1) for dithianon and 5.72-42.56 mg L(-1) for fluazinam. According to resistance factor values, all D. applanata isolates were sensitive to copper hydroxide, dithianon and tebuconazole. Among tested isolates, six were highly resistant to pyraclostrobin (RFs in the range of 207.1-325.5) and two moderately resistant to fluazinam (RFs were 3 and 7.4), respectively.
