Mechanisms of resistance to QoI fungicides in phytopathogenic fungi.
The major threat to crops posed by fungal diseases results in the use by growers of enormous amounts of chemicals. Of these, quinol oxydation inhibitors (QoIs) are probably the most successful class of agricultural fungicides. QoIs inhibit mitochondrial respiration in fungi by binding to the Qo site of the cytochrome bc1 complex, blocking electron transfer and halting ATP synthesis. Unfortunate...
متن کاملThe Metabolism of Phytopathogenic Bacteria
In view of the economic importance of plant pathogenic bacteria it is understandable that most of the work on these organisms should have been devoted to problems of pathogenicity, host range, and symptoms, specificity, distribution, and control (Burkholder, 1948; Hildebrandt, 1950). The taxonomy of these bacteria has been the subject of numerous investigations (Burkholder, 1948) and significan...
متن کاملMechanisms of zidovudine resistance in bacteria.
Unlike their parent strains, zidovudine-resistant derivatives of Escherichia coli KL16 and Salmonella typhimurium NCTC 5710 were found to be incapable of incorporating radiolabelled thymidine into their chromosomal DNA. Since incorporation was still prevented in the presence of EDTA, resistance to zidovudine was not associated with a permeability barrier, but appeared to result from the loss of...
متن کاملMechanisms of polymyxin resistance: acquired and intrinsic resistance in bacteria
Polymyxins are polycationic antimicrobial peptides that are currently the last-resort antibiotics for the treatment of multidrug-resistant, Gram-negative bacterial infections. The reintroduction of polymyxins for antimicrobial therapy has been followed by an increase in reports of resistance among Gram-negative bacteria. Some bacteria, such as Klebsiella pneumoniae, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and ...
متن کاملCopper resistance mechanisms in bacteria and fungi.
Copper is both an essential micronutrient and a toxic heavy metal for most living cells. The presence of high concentrations of cupric ions in the environment promotes the selection of microorganisms possessing genetic determinants for copper resistance. Several examples of chromosomal and plasmid copper-resistance systems in bacteria have been reported, and the mechanisms of resistance have st...
