Strawberry wilt disease, caused by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. fragariae (Fof) results in a considerable decline in both strawberry yield and quality. Fludioxonil, a phenylpyrrole-class fungicide, is widely recognized for its effective control against various fungal pathogens. However, its specific activity against Fof has been insufficiently investigated. In this study, we assessed the antifungal activity of fludioxonil against Fof by determining the EC50 values for 100 Fof strains. The average EC50 value was 0.0239 ± 0.0032 μg/mL, indicating strong antifungal activity, which was further supported by a unimodal distribution of the EC50 values. Furthermore, eight highly resistant mutants were generated through in vitro fungicide taming. These mutants exhibited reduced biological fitness, as evidenced by diminished sporulation capacity and attenuated virulence. Under fludioxonil treatment, sensitive strains showed a significant increase in intracellular glycerol accumulation, whereas no significant change was observed in the resistant mutants. Moreover, the resistant mutants showed heightened sensitivity to hyperosmotic stresses. No cross-resistance was observed between fludioxonil and other fungicides with distinct modes of action, including phenamacril, carbendazim, pydiflumetofen, pyraclostrobin, tebuconazole, and fluazinam. Moreover, the phosphorylation level of FoHog1 was significantly lower in the resistant mutants compared to the sensitive strains. Mutations in key components FoOs1, FoOs5, and FoOs2 in the MAPK cascade pathway were identified in the resistant mutants. Based on these findings, we conclude that the risk of resistance development in Fof toward fludioxonil can be classified as low to moderate.
Fusarium head blight (FHB), primarily caused by the Fusarium graminearum species complex (FGSC), reduces cereal yields and causes substantial economic losses globally. In China, Fusarium asiaticum is the predominant FGSC species, causing yield losses and deoxynivalenol contamination. Pydiflumetofen, a succinate dehydrogenase inhibitor, was widely used in China for FHB control. Among 5176 field isolates collected in 2023 from Hubei, Anhui, and Jiangsu provinces, five pydiflumetofen-resistant F. asiaticum isolates were identified. These isolates exhibited reduced sporulation and virulence. Site-directed mutagenesis confirmed that the FaSDHC2-A83V substitution conferred high resistance while impairing sporulation. No cross-resistance occurred with pyraclostrobin, phenamacril, or tebuconazole, but strong positive cross-resistance was observed with fluopyram and enpyracymid, and negative cross-resistance with benzovindiflupyr, a novel finding with potential implications for agricultural and clinical antifungal strategies. This study reports the first field-derived pydiflumetofen-resistant F. asiaticum mutants and identifies FaSDHC2-A83V as a key resistance marker, aiding monitoring and sustainable FHB management.
Fusarium head blight (FHB), caused by the Fusarium graminearum species complex, poses a significant threat to global wheat production and human health due to its high virulence and the ability to produce harmful secondary metabolites. Although various fungicides have been extensively used to control FHB, there is a critical need for more comprehensive information on the resistance of F. graminearum to fluopyram in China. This study evaluated the sensitivity of F. graminearum strains collected from five distinct regions to fluopyram. The EC50 values for fluopyram ranged from 1.20 to 6.42 μg/mL, with an average value of 3.30 μg/mL. Additionally, fluopyram-resistant mutants were generated in the laboratory by chemical taming, with a resistance frequency of 8.3 × 10--3. Furthermore, no significant differences were observed in conidiation, growth rate, and temperature sensitivity between the resistant mutants and the parental strains. It was also determined that fluopyram exhibits positive cross-resistance with pydiflumetofen but no cross-resistance with carbendazim, tebuconazole, and pyraclostrobin. The mutations associated with fluopyram resistance in F. graminearum were identified as SDHB-H248L, SDHC2-A83V, and SDHC2-R86K. Based on these findings, the risk of resistance development in F. graminearum to fluopyram was assessed as moderate. Additionally, it was found that the combination of prothioconazole and fluopyram is more effective than their individual use in field trials. Considering the role of fluopyram in inhibiting DON produced by F. graminearum, it is recommended that fluopyram be used in conjunction with other highly effective fungicides to control FHB, thereby achieving both disease control and mycotoxin reduction.
Tomato wilt disease caused by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici (Fol) results in a decrease in tomato yield and quality. Pyraclostrobin, a typical quinone outside inhibitor (QoI), inhibits the cytochrome bc1 complex to block energy transfer. However, there is currently limited research on the effectiveness of pyraclostrobin against Fol. In this study, we determined the activity of pyraclostrobin against Fol and found the EC50 values for pyraclostrobin against 100 Fol strains (which have never been exposed to QoIs before). The average EC50 value is 0.3739 ± 0.2413 μg/mL, indicating a strong antifungal activity of pyraclostrobin against Fol, as shown by unimodal curves of the EC50 values. Furthermore, we generated five resistant mutants through chemical taming and identified four mutants with high-level resistance due to the Cytb-G143S mutation and one mutant with medium-level resistance due to the Cytb-G137R mutation. The molecular docking results indicate that the Cytb-G143S or Cytb-G137R mutations of Fol lead to a change in the binding mode of Cytb to pyraclostrobin, resulting in a decrease in affinity. The resistant mutants exhibit reduced fitness in terms of mycelial growth (25 and 30 °C), virulence, and sporulation. Moreover, the mutants carrying the Cytb-G143S mutation suffer a more severe fitness penalty compared to those carrying the Cytb-G137R mutation. There is a positive correlation observed among azoxystrobin, picoxystrobin, fluoxastrobin, and pyraclostrobin for resistant mutants; however, no cross-resistance was detected between pyraclostrobin and pydiflumetofen, prochloraz, or cyazofamid. Thus, we conclude that the potential risk of resistance development in Fol toward pyraclostrobin can be categorized as ranging from low to moderate.
Gray mould caused by Botrytis cinerea poses a threat to Lily (Lilium spp.), an important plant with both medicinal and ornamental value, during pre- and post-harvest stages. Ergosterol biosynthesis inhibitors (EBIs) have been widely registered to control gray mould caused by B. cinerea in various plants over a prolonged period of time, yet no instances of resistance of B. cinerea to EBIs have been detected in the field. In this study, the field B. cinerea EBIs-resistant populations were detected from the diseased lily flowers. The CYP51 protein, which is the target of EBIs, was found to have G461S or R464K substitutions in these resistant strains. To further verify whether the G461S or R464K substitutions of CYP51 confer the resistance to EBIs in B. cinerea, the mutants carrying the G461S or R464K substitutions of CYP51 were generated from EBIs-sensitive wild type strains via site-directed mutagenesis. The G461S or R464K substitutions indeed resulted in decreased sensitivity of B. cinerea to EBIs. Meanwhile, the mutants conferring the S461G or K464R substitutions of CYP51 were generated from the field EBIs-resistant strains, and the significant increase in sensitivity to EBIs were observed in these mutants. Furthermore, the G461S or R464K substitutions suffered to fitness penalty in mycelial growth and virulence, but improved sporulation capability. Molecular docking analysis furtherly demonstrated that the CYP51 protein, carrying the G461S or R464K substitutions, exhibited reduced binding affinity with tebuconazole. To the best of our knowledge, it is the first report that G461S or R464K substitutions in CYP51 leading to field resistance to EBIs in B. cinerea. These findings not only provided valuable insights for managing lily gray mould caused B. cinerea, but also enhance our understanding of molecular mechanism underlying plant pathogen resistance to EBIs.
Fusarium solani is responsible for causing root rot in various crops, resulting in wilting and eventual demise. Phenamacril, a specific inhibitor of myosin5 protein, has gained recognition as an effective fungicide against a broad spectrum of Fusarium species. It has been officially registered for controlling Fusarium diseases through spray application, root irrigation, and seed dipping. In this study, phenamacril was observed to exhibit negligible inhibitory effects on F. solani causing crop root rot, despite the absence of prior exposure to phenamacril. Considering the high selectivity of phenamacril, this phenomenon was attributed to intrinsic resistance and further investigated for its underlying mechanism. Sequence alignment analysis of myosin5 proteins across different Fusarium species revealed significant differences at positions 218 and 376. Subsequent homology modeling and molecular docking results indicated that substitutions T218S, K376M, and T218S&K376M impaired the binding affinity between phenamacril and myosin5 in F. solani. Mutants carrying these substitutions were generated via site-directed mutagenesis. A phenamacril-sensitivity test showed that the EC50 values of mutants carrying T218S, K376M, and T218S&K376M were reduced by at least 6.13-fold, 9.66-fold, and 761.90-fold respectively compared to the wild-type strain. Fitness testing indicated that mutants carrying K376M or T218S&K376M had reduced sporulation compared to the wild-type strain. Additionally, mutants carrying T218S exhibited an enhanced virulence compared to the wild-type strain. However, there were no significant differences observed in mycelial growth rates between the mutants and the wild-type strain. Thus, the intrinsic differences observed at positions 218 and 376 in myosin5 between F. solani and other Fusarium species are specifically associated with phenamacril resistance. The identification of these resistance-associated positions in myosin5 of F. solani has significantly contributed to the understanding of phenamacril resistance mechanisms, thereby discouraging the use of phenamacril for controlling F. solani.
