Abstract excerpt
The risk of resistance development to fludioxonil and the potential implications of resistance mutations to ochratoxin production in Aspergillus carbonarius were investigated. Mutants of A. carbonarius highly resistant to phenylpyrroles were isolated at a high mutation frequency after N-MNTG-mutagenesis and selection on media containing fludioxonil. A highly reduced sensitivity to fungicides belonging to the same...
