Negative Cross-Resistance in Fungicides: From the Laboratory to the Field

  • Chapter
Resistance ’91: Achievements and Developments in Combating Pesticide Resistance

Abstract

When emergence of resistance to one fungicide coincides with increased sensitivity to another chemical, it may be a case of negative cross-resistance. Examples are given for carboxamides, sterol C-14 demethylation inhibitors and benzimidazoles. The mechanisms of such negative relationships and their practical implications are discussed.
