Abstract/Contents: | "Gray leaf spot (gls) of perennial ryegrass caused by Pyricularia grisea has rapidly become one of the most destructive turfgrass diseases. Control of gls is dependent on the use of preventative fungicide treatments. Strobilurin-based (QoI) fungicides, which inhibit the mitochondrial enzyme cytochrome b, have proven very effective against gls. However, in 2000, QoI fungicide resistance was found in P. grisea on 2 golf courses in the USA - one in Lexington, KY and the other in Bloomington, IL. Nucleotide sequence analysis of the cytochrome b gene (CYTB) in a number of isolates from affected turf, revealed two mutant cytB alleles, each carrying a single point mutation. The first mutation causes an G143A alteration in the peptide sequence, while the other results in a F129L change. These substitutions have previously been associated with QoI fungicide resistance in Venturia inaequalis and Saccharomyces cerevisiae. In P. grisea, mutants possessing the G143 A substitution had ~10 fold higher levels of resistance than those with F129L. DNA fingerprint analysis of several resistant P. grisea isolates found on a single QoI fungicide-treated golf course revealed that they were genetically distinct. Therefore, the widespread occurrence of disease on this course was not caused by dispersal of a single resistant clone." |
