Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Strawberry gray mold, caused by Botrytis cinerea, poses a global threat to strawberry production. However, the resistance mechanisms of B. cinerea to cyprodinil in Chongqing remain unclear. This study aimed to monitor resistance, clarify its molecular mechanisms, and evaluate the fitness of the local B. cinerea population. RESULTS: A high resistance frequency of 81.7%, which was stably inherited....
