Fungicide Resistance in Crop Protection Risk and Management

Pathogen resistance to fungicides has become a challenging problem in the managing of crop diseases and has threatened the performance of some highly potent commercial fungicides. Worldwide, resistance to more than one hundred different active ingredients has been reported. This book compiles information on fungicide resistance over the past three decades on the status, development, and processes involved in the build-up of resistance in pathogens to different groups of fungicides, while also suggesting various measures for managing this problem.

  • "This book contains 21 chapters contributed by active researchers from several countries including Brazil, Canada, the Czech Republic, France, Greece, India, Israel, Italy, Japan, Sweden, Switzerland, the UK and the USA. The book chapters have been divided into five sections. The first section on 'History of Resistance Development' has one chapter dealing with the historical perspectives of the development of fungicide resistance. The second section on 'Status, Detection and Management of Resistance' includes eleven chapters on resistance development and its management in important pathogens to various groups of fungicides such as benzimidazoles, SBIs, phenylamides, carboxylic acid amides, quinone outside inhibitors and other novel action compounds. One chapter in this section also gives information on field kits and Internet-supported fungicide resistance monitoring. In the section on 'Resistance Cases in Different Countries', there are six chapters dealing with resistance development in several countries such as Italy, France, Japan, India and the USA. The section on 'Genetics and Multi-Drug Resistance' includes two chapters on the genetics of fungicide resistance and the emergence of multi-drug resistance in fungal pathogens. In the final section on 'Role of FRAC' there is one chapter that highlights the role of the Fungicide Resistance Action Committee in managing resistance to different groups of risky fungicides. The book therefore covers different aspects of the problem of fungicide resistance. Each chapter has a concluding paragraph at the end highlighting the present status and future projections of the problem and its management."
