Abstract
The impact on the selection and control of subpopulations of V. inaequalis resistant to the sterol demethylation inhibitor (DMI) fenarimol or to dodine were evaluated with respect to several tactics of apple scab control. Experiments were conducted in an experimental orchard with elevated levels of DMI and dodine resistance over a period of three consecutive seasons. The DMI-resistant subpopulation was poorly (14%) controlled at a fenarimol rate of 15 mg/liter (sprayed to run-off), whereas control was significantly improved (54%) at twice that rate. Mancozeb mixed with the low rate of fenarimol also improved the control of DMI-resistant isolates, but the improvement was due to the indiscriminate control of both the DMI-sensitive and -resistant populations provided by mancozeb. The selection of fenarimol-resistant isolates resulting from poor control of the resistant subpopulation by the low rate of fenarimol was equivalent whether fenarimol was applied singly or in mixture with mancozeb. Consequently, the use of high DMI rates in mixture with a protective fungicide is expected to delay the build-up of resistant subpopulations by limiting their increase through two separate principles of control. For dodine in mixture with fenarimol, it was found that each mixing partner applied alone selected both fe-narimol- and dodine-resistant isolates. This selection pattern was partly explained by the possibility that one of the multiple genes underlying fenarimol and dodine resistance confers resistance to both fungicides, in addition to the selection of double-resistant isolates. Regardless, a mixture of fenarimol with dodine each employed at a low rate controlled both the fenarimol-and the dodine-resistant subpopulation at least as effectively as the individual components at twice their mixture rate, and an accelerated selection of double-resistant isolates was not detected. In commercial orchard trials, mixtures of DMIs with either a protective fungicide or with dodine provided equivalent control even when levels of DMI resistance, dodine resistance, or both were moderately elevated. With the exception of orchards with high levels of DMI or dodine resistance, dodine might be an alternative to protective fungicides as a mixing partner with DMIs.
