Effective crop protection is vital to safeguard food security, but growers are reliant on a
limited toolbox in the face of diverse and evolving pathogens. New crop protection methods …

Fungicides are widely used in developed agricultural systems to control disease and
safeguard crop yield and quality. Over time, however, resistance to many of the most …

Owing to their evolutionary potential, plant pathogens are able to rapidly adapt to genetically
controlled plant resistance, often resulting in resistance breakdown and major epidemics in …

Plant pathogens can emerge in agricultural ecosystems through several mechanisms,
including host-tracking, host jumps, hybridization and horizontal gene transfer. High …

Research on the pathogen components involved in Fusarium head blight (FHB) along with
the effects of their interactions on disease development and mycotoxin accumulation is …

Fungicide-resistance management would be more effective if principles governing the
selection of resistant strains could be determined and validated. Such principles could then …

Spray‐induced gene silencing (SIGS) is an innovative strategy for crop protection. However,
the mechanism of SIGS is not known. Here, we first demonstrate that secondary small …

At very low pesticide rates, a certain low proportion of pests may receive a sublethal dose,
are highly stressed by the pesticide and yet survive. Stress is a general enhancer of …

Anthropogenic impacts increasingly drive ecological and evolutionary processes at many
spatio‐temporal scales, demanding greater capacity to predict and manage their …

This paper reviews the evidence relating to the question: does the risk of fungicide
resistance increase or decrease with dose? The development of fungicide resistance …
