Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Metalaxyl is a phenylamide fungicide, introduced for oomycete management in the 1970s. RPA190 gene has been reported to be associated with metalaxyl resistance, although other genes may also be involved in the process. This study assessed the evolutionary association of amino acid (AA) mutations in RPA190 with metalaxyl resistance in Phytophthora infestans. RESULTS: All isolates from Yunnan were...
