Fitness of Botrytis cinerea Associated with Dicarboximide Resistance

Abstract: Fitness costs in Botrytis cinerea associated with dicarboximide resistance were studied. Spearman rank correlation coefficients were calculated between resistance to iprodione and survival ability both outside and inside the greenhouse, measured on isolates randomly chosen from a collection done in a survey of commercial greenhouses in Southeastern Spain in 1992. Survival was measured at 47, 83, and 110 days as percentage of surviving mycelia in a sample of artificially inoculated tomato stem pieces and as per… Show more

“…Traditionally, biocides have been used to deal with these problems but different disadvantages such as establishment of resistant strains and suppression of natural competitors have made alternatives such as biological control necessary (Beever et al, 1989;Raposo et al, 2000). Biological control strategies include natural plant-and animal-derived compounds, as well as antagonistic micro-organisms (Ciani & Fatichenti, 2001).…”

“…Chemical control of Botrytis has been partially successful and fungicides are commonly used in the management of grey mould. However, the risk of the establishment of resistant Botrytis strains is considerable (Beever et al, 1989;Raposo et al, 2000). Factors related to the efficiency of such agents include the timing of application, thoroughness of coverage, and in the case of certain systemic fungicides, build-up of Botrytis strains with fungicide tolerance; fungicides then only serve to suppress natural competitors, often rendering the disease even more severe (Beever et al, 1989;Raposo et al, 2000).…”

With rekindled public concern about environmental issues, together with the awareness that upsetting the natural microbial balance can lead to severe outbreaks of disease, plant pathologists are increasingly interested in the possibilities of biological control.…”

“…Whether drug-resistant organisms persist in nature depends on their fitness relative to drug-sensitive organisms. Correlations between resistance to fungicides and fitness traits such as latency, sporulation, and survival of plant-pathogenic fungi have provided mixed results: that there is no cost of resistance (34), that there is a cost for survival of resistant propagules but not somatic cells (35); and that there is a cost not correlated with any specific trait (15,18). The evolutionary dynamics of drug resistance and its fitness costs have been studied in viruses (8,31) and bacteria (2,6,7,25,38) but not in a comparable way in fungi, despite their increasing importance as opportunistic pathogens of humans (1,14,17).…”
