1、PATHOGEN RISK LIST(December 2005)PurposeInformation is provided about the risk of pathogens to develop resistance to fungicides under specific agronomic conditions.IntroductionBecause no scientific criteria are available to accurately determine the risk of a pathogen to develop resistance, our class

2、ification is based on experience and reported resistance claims over the last 40 years. Generally, the risk increases when a pathogen undergoes many and short disease cycles per season, the dispersal through spores over time and space is high, sexual recombination is mandatory in the disease cycle a

3、nd the competitive ability of resistant individual is at least as high as that of the wild type (in the absence of selection pressure). Furthermore, the risk is considered as high when resistance evolved already after few years of product use.Examples to illustrate pathogen riskIt is quite easy to d

4、etect single isolates of a pathogen with reduced sensitivity to a given fungicide but only their frequency over time and space will decide whether product performance will be affected significantly. Therefore, we consider the pathogen risk as medium to high only if resistance was reported in commerc

5、ial situations for more than one fungicide class.Wheat powdery mildew is considered as high risk pathogen because resistance evolved to six different chemical classes within 2 to 5 years, whereas wheat brown rust is a low risk pathogen because no resistance evolved to the major fungicide classes (DM

6、Is, QoIs, morpholines) used against this pathogen, even not after 25 year (DMIs). Eyespot in wheat bears a medium risk, resistance evolved to MBCs and prochloraz (DMIs) only after 10 to 15 years.An interesting case is Phytophthora infestans that developed resistance quite rapidly to the phenylamide

7、fungicides but not at all to dimethomorph, iprovalicarb, fluazinam, cymoxanil, azoxystrobin and fenamidone (QoI fungicides), cyazofamid (QiI fungicide), propamocarb, and organotins. Therefore, we re-classified P. infestans as high risk pathogen for the RNA1polymerase target only and as a medium risk

8、 pathogen for all other modes of action (see Table 1 and 2).Pathogen risk classesThe following plant pathogens (Table 1) from major world markets have evolved resistance to fungicides in a time span sufficiently short to be a serious threat to the commercial success of more than one fungicide class.

In some case

12、s this due to the pattern of product use. Cases of specific isolates being classed as resistant may be known in some instances, but in commercial practice resistance has not created major disease control problems. The EPPO Guideline does not list these and decisions on baseline production must be ma

For certain pathogens (e.g. Phytophthora infestans), resistance occurred only to one chemical class (phenylamides) but not to others and therefore, the pathoge
