Abstract excerpt
Resistance to sterol 14 alpha-demethylase inhibitor (DMI) fungicides has been correlated with mutations in the CYP51 gene encoding the target enzyme eburicol 14 alpha-demethylase. CYP51 was isolated from the eyespot pathogen Tapesia yallundae revealing a predicted 526-amino acid product exhibiting homology to other fungal CYP51s. CYP51 was sequenced from four field isolates sensitive or resistant to the DMI...
