A Secondary Metabolite Secreted by Penicillium citrinum Is Able to Enhance Parastagonospora nodorum Sensitivity to Tebuconazole and Azoxystrobin.

ABSTRACT: Parastagonospora nodorum causes glume and leaf blotch of wheat, a harmful disease resulting in serious losses in grain yield. In many countries including Russia, fungicidal formulations based on triazoles and on triazoles combined with strobilurins are used to control this fungus. However, their prolonged application may promote the selection of fungicide-resistant strains of P. nodorum leading to significant attenuation or even loss of fungicidal effect. Chemosensitization of plant pathogenic fungi with natural compounds represents a promising strategy for mitigating fungicide resistance and other negative impacts of fungicides. In this work, we applied a chemosensitization approach towards P. nodorum strains non-resistant or resistant to tebuconazole or azoxystrobin
