Identification of sequence mutations in Phytophthora cactorum genome associated with mefenoxam resistance and development of a molecular assay for the mutant detection in strawberry (F. × ananassa).

Abstract excerpt

Phytophthora crown rot (PhCR) caused by Phytophthora cactorum is one of the most damaging diseases of strawberry worldwide. Mefenoxam is one of the major fungicides currently used to manage PhCR. However, the emergence and spread of resistant isolates have made controlling the pathogen in the field problematic. In the present study, using whole genome sequencing analysis, mutations associated with...
