Abstract excerpt
Benzimidazoles are systemic fungicides widely used for the control of Black Sigatoka. They exert their antifungal activity by binding to β-tubulin and disrupting fungal cell division. The specific mode of action of benzimidazoles, along with their intensive use, has favoured the appearance of resistance in Mycosphaerella fijiensis, a situation which has precluded their use in several countries. Studies made in dif...
