Assessing the potential antifungal resistance risk from dual use of a mode of action in agriculture and medical treatment of human pathogens
2024-05-21
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> A mechanistic basis is described for assessment of resistance risk to medical anti-fungal treatments from agricultural use of fungicides of the same mode of action. The following need to occur in landscape environments for a risk to be posed by ‘dual use’: (i) emergence, whereby a resistant strain emerges by mutation and invasion, (ii) selection, whereby a mutation conferring a fitness advantage...
