Eyespot is an economically important stem‐base disease of wheat caused by two fungal species: Oculimacula yallundae and Oculimacula acuformis. This study investigated the efficacy of two sources of resistance, viz. the genes Pch1, introgressed into hexaploid wheat from Aegilops ventricosa, and Pch2, identified in wheat cv. Cappelle Desprez, against O. yallundae and O. acuformis separately. In a series of seedling bioassays Pch1 was found to be highly effective against both species. Although Pch2 was found to confer resistance against both pathogen species, it was significantly less effective against penetration from O. yallundae than O. acuformis. Furthermore, a quantitative trait locus (QTL) analysis was not able to locate any resistance to O. yallundae on chromosome 7A of Cappelle Desprez. This has important implications for the use of Pch2 in commercial cultivars as it is necessary to have genes that confer resistance to both pathogens for effective eyespot control. In addition, a set of 22 T. monococcum accessions was screened for resistance to both O. yallundae and O. acuformis to identify potentially novel resistances and to assess the accessions for evidence of differential resistance to the eyespot species. Significant differences in resistance to the two pathogens were identified in four of these lines, providing evidence for differential resistance in T. monococcum. This study demonstrates that future screening for novel sources of eyespot resistance should investigate both pathogen species.  相似文献

The recent report of a differential response of wheat lines containing the Pch2 gene to infection with the eyespot pathogens Oculimacula yallundae and O. acuformis has prompted this re‐examination of the response to these fungi by the recombinant lines used to map Pch2. Homozygous recombinant substitution lines (RSL) derived from the hybridization of Chinese Spring (CS) and the CS chromosome substitution line Cappelle Desprez 7A (CS/CD7A), previously evaluated for response to glucuronidase (GUS)‐transformed O. yallundae, were evaluated for response to infection with GUS‐transformed O. acuformis. Based on visual scores and on GUS expression level, which reflects fungal colonization of seedling plants, evidence of a quantitative trait locus (QTL) conferring resistance to O. acuformis was found in two separate growth chamber experiments (logarithm of the odds, LOD, = 2·7 and 6·7 at 305 and 289 cM, respectively) that was equivalent in location to that for resistance to O. yallundae (LOD = 13·2 and 11·4 at 289 and 304 cM, respectively). These results confirm that Pch2 confers some degree of resistance against both O. yallundae and O. acuformis under these conditions.  相似文献

Eyespot is an economically important stem base disease of wheat caused by the soilborne fungal pathogens Oculimacula yallundae and Oculimacula acuformis. The most effective method of controlling the disease is host resistance. However, there are only three genetically characterized resistances in wheat varieties and further sources of resistance are required. Previous studies have identified resistances in wild relatives, but use of these resistances has been limited by linkage drag with deleterious traits exacerbated by low rates of recombination. Therefore, the identification of novel resistances in hexaploid wheat germplasm is desirable. The Watkins collection currently consists of 1056 hexaploid wheat landraces that represent global wheat diversity at the time of its collection in the 1920s and 1930s. As such, it may contain beneficial agronomic traits such as eyespot resistance. The Watkins collection was screened for resistance to O. yallundae based on a glasshouse test of all 1056 accessions and a polytunnel test of 44 accessions selected from a previous field trial. Resistant lines identified in these tests were retested against both O. yallundae and O. acuformis. This identified 17 accessions with resistance to one or both of the pathogen species. From these, two accessions (1190094.1 and 1190736.3) provided a high level of resistance to both pathogen species. An F4 population derived from accession 1190736.3 indicated that the resistance to O. acuformis in this accession is conferred by a single gene and therefore would be suitable for introgression into elite wheat varieties to provide an alternative source of eyespot resistance.  相似文献

Field isolates of the cereal eyespot pathogen can be divided into two groups which are now considered as two species: Tapesia yallundae and Tapesia acuformis. In both species the first case of acquired resistance was observed with benzimidazole fungicides in the early 1980s. At the same time, a number of sterol C-14 demethylation inhibitors (DMIs), such as the imidazole prochloraz and several triazoles, including flusilazole, were introduced. Surprisingly T. acuformis appeared intrinsically resistant to the triazole derivatives in comparison to T. yallundae, but both species were sensitive to prochloraz. The intensive use of these DMIs led to the development of acquired resistance towards triazoles in T. yallundae and towards prochloraz in T. acuformis. Today all the strains in both species appear equally sensitive to the anilinopyrimidine cyprodinil. ©1997 SCI  相似文献

Eyespot pathogens, Tapesia yallundae and Tapesia acuformis, were isolated from two trial sites in the UK over several years. Both sites were treated with 2 applications per year of cyprodinil (a new anilinopyrimidine fungicide), prochloraz and a mixture of cyprodinil with prochloraz. One trial site was exposed to cyprodinil for 3 years, and the second for a total of 11 years, including 5 years before the trial was initiated. Control of eyespot and sensitivity to cyprodinil were monitored. During the first 3 years of the trial, disease control with all fungicide treatments ranged from 43% to 82%. At the site, where the trial was extended for a further 3 years, control then began to decline but no practical resistance was detected. The decline in control by both fungicides suggests that factors other than reduced sensitivity might be involved. Field isolates of both T. yallundae and T. acuformis with reduced sensitivity to cyprodinil were found predominantly in plots treated with cyprodinil. A reduction in sensitivity to cyprodinil was identified in the population from cyprodinil-treated plots in two years out of six, and in the population from mixture plots in the final year. No obvious trends could be identified and in-vivo studies showed control of most isolates with reduced sensitivity could be regained by increasing the dose to one tenth of the recommended field rate. Analysis of progeny from sexual crosses involving a sensitive isolate and a field isolate with an ED50 value higher than the baseline sensitivity range indicated that a single gene controlled the reduction in sensitivity to cyprodinil in one T. yallundae isolate. There is clearly a resistance risk in eyespot to cyprodinil. The reduction in sensitivity is monogenic in inheritance and at a significant level in some isolates, but any shift in sensitivity in field populations has so far been gradual.  相似文献

Cereal eyespot fungi Tapesia acuformis and Tapesia yallundae are closely related species which show different behaviours upon treatment with sterol 14-demethylase inhibitors (DMIs). T. acuformis is naturally resistant to DMIs belonging to the triazole family and susceptible to the imidazole ones, whilst T. yallundae is sensitive to both inhibitors. Cloning of the target enzyme gene, CYP51, from the two species revealed an important polymorphism between them. Further sequencing of CYP51 from sixteen T. acuformis and eleven T. yallundae strains with different phenotypes with regards to resistance to DMIs confirmed that at least eleven variations are species related. Among them, a conserved phenylalanine residue at position 180, found both in T. yallundae and in all known CYP51 proteins from filamentous fungi and yeast, was replaced in T. acuformis by a leucine. Therefore, a leucine at 180 could be possibly involved in natural resistance of T. acuformis to triazoles. Other mutations were observed in some resistant strains, sometimes simultaneously, but in contrast to what was reported for other filamentous fungi, where a mutation at the 136 position of the CYP51 gene product seemed to correlate with resistance to DMIs, we did not find a clear relationship between a given mutation and a particular phenotype. This result suggests that resistance to DMIs could have a polygenic nature in Tapesia. We took advantage of species-related variations to develop a PCR-based assay allowing rapid and easy discrimination between field strains of the two species.  相似文献

Changing fungicide sensitivities in populations of Oculimacula yallundae and O. acuformis , the species responsible for cereal eyespot in Western Europe, were determined over a 17 year period between 1984 and 2000. The data were collected by Aventis Crop Science as part of their long-term survey to monitor changes in sensitivity to prochloraz and the methyl benzimidazole carbamate (MBC) fungicides in eyespot populations. The results show evidence for reduced sensitivity to both fungicides over the period of the survey. The decline in MBC sensitivity is in agreement with reports of practical resistance (a detectable loss of disease control in the field) to this fungicide which were widely reported from the mid 1980s onward. Prochloraz sensitivity was more complex, with the emergence of a higher resistance category of isolates in the late 1980s and early 1990s which then decreased in frequency towards the end of the survey. This may be partly explained by the introduction and increased use of cyprodinil in the mid 1990s. Although all trends were similar across Europe, differences were observed between the two eyespot species. A higher frequency of O. yallundae isolates showed decreased sensitivity to MBC, whereas decreased sensitivity to prochloraz was at a higher frequency in O. acuformis populations. The relative abundance of the two eyespot species was influenced by their differential levels of fungicide sensitivity, with the ratio increasing toward the species with the highest level of resistance to the prevailing fungicide.  相似文献

This study aimed to elucidate the population dynamics of Rhizoctonia, Oculimacula, and Microdochium species, causing the stem base disease complex of sharp eyespot, eyespot, and brown foot rot in cereals. Pathogen DNA in soil, roots, and stem fractions, and disease expression were quantified in 102 English wheat fields in two seasons. Weather data for each site was collected to determine patterns that correlate with assessed diseases. Oculimacula spp. (66%) and R. solani AG 2-1 (63%) were most frequently detected in soil, followed by R. cerealis (54%) and Microdochium spp. (33%). Oculimacula spp. (89%) and R. cerealis (56%) predominated on roots and soil but were not associated with root rot symptoms, suggesting that these species used soil and roots for survival and as inoculum source. M. nivale was more frequently detected than M. majus on stems up to GS 21–30 and co-occurred on plant samples with O. acuformis. O. yallundae had higher DNA concentration than O. acuformis at the lower 5 cm basal region at GS 37–45. R. cerealis predominated in the upper 15 cm above the base beyond stem extension. Brown foot rot by Microdochium spp. was favoured by cool and wet autumns/winters and dominated in English wheat. Eyespot and sharp eyespot disease index by Oculimacula spp. and R. cerealis, respectively, correlated with wet/humid springs and summers. Results suggested that stem base pathogens generally coexisted; however, their abundance in time and space was influenced by favourable weather patterns and host development, with niche differentiation after stem extension.  相似文献

In a controlled environment (15/10°C) (day/night) container experiment on winter wheat (cv. Avalon), eyespot incidence (percentage of plants affected) and number of leaf sheaths penetrated after 6 weeks increased with inoculum concentration (102−106 conidia mL−1) of Oculimacula yallundae (OY) or Oculimacula acuformis (OA), but there was no difference between the two species. In an outdoor container experiment, seedlings inoculated with OY 2 weeks after sowing had a greater incidence of eyespot than those inoculated with OA, when assessed 7 weeks after inoculation. Seedlings inoculated with OA at 10 or 20 weeks after sowing developed more severe eyespot by maturity than those inoculated with OY. In an experiment at 15/10°C with seedlings inoculated with OY + OA 2 weeks after sowing, more leaf sheaths were penetrated by OY (3·0 per plant) than OA (2·3 per plant) 6 weeks after inoculation. Field experiments with winter wheat consistently showed leaf sheath production, leaf sheath death, and number of leaf sheaths infected or penetrated by OA or OY were related linearly to thermal time (°C days) after sowing. Depending on cultivar, season and sample, a new leaf sheath was produced in 116–216°C days; a leaf sheath died in 221–350°C days; and infection of a new leaf sheath occurred in 129–389°C days. The mean number of living leaf sheaths infected differed between samples, cultivars and seasons for both OY and OA. Regression analysis of the 1985/86 data suggested that OY progressed more rapidly than OA through the leaf sheaths, and that both the pathogens progressed more rapidly than the rate of leaf sheath death, but more slowly than the rate at which leaf sheaths were produced. It also suggested that OA progressed more slowly than the rate at which leaf sheaths died in 1987/88, but OY did not.  相似文献

A survey of fungicide resistance in Mycosphaerella graminicola and Tapesia acuformis, two major pathogens of winter wheat in France, respectively responsible for speckled leaf blotch and eyespot, led to the characterization of two types of resistant strains to sterol 14α-demethylation inhibitors (DMIs). Most of the strains of M. graminicola collected in France in 1997–1998 were resistant to all DMIs, and only in a few strains was the resistance to several triazoles associated with increased susceptibility to pyrimidine derivatives (i.e., fenarimol, nuarimol) and triflumizole. On the other hand, in T. acuformis the most prevalent strains were those which exhibited negative-cross resistance between DMIs. In both fungi such a phenomenon could be related to changes in cytochrome P450 sterol 14α-demethylase, the target site of these fungicides. For Botryotinia fuckeliana, the causal agent of grey mould, the extensive monitoring conducted in French vineyards before the marketing of fenhexamid revealed the presence of highly resistant strains to this promising botryticide (only in tests involving mycelial growth measurements). Negative cross-resistance to edifenphos and several sterol biosynthesis inhibitors, such as prochloraz and fenpropimorph, was observed in fenhexamid resistant strains. Synergism of the antifungal action of fenhexamid by cytochrome P450 inhibitors, such as the DMI fungicides, was only recorded in fenhexamid resistant strains. These data and those previously obtained with edifenphos resistant strains of Magnaporthe grisea (rice blast pathogen) suggest that in fenhexamid resistant strains of B. fuckeliana the same cytochrome P450 monooxygenase could be involved in detoxification of fenhexamid and activation of edifenphos.

The progress of development of stem-base pathogens in crops of second winter wheat was plotted in nine experiments in three years. The amount of each pathogen present was determined by quantitative PCR. Where Tapesia yallundae was present in quantifiable amounts, it usually developed earlier than the other eyespot pathogen, T. acuformis. Both species were usually present in greater amounts on cultivars which are more susceptible to eyespot. The sharp eyespot pathogen, Rhizoctonia cerealis, developed more erratically than either of the Tapesia spp. and there were no consistent effects on different cultivars. Fusarium spp., the cause of brown foot rot, were rarely present in quantifiable amounts, but Microdochium nivale was usually present as one or both of the varieties nivale and majus. Late-season (after anthesis) decreases in M. nivale suggest that any brown foot rot symptoms attributable to this fungus would have fully developed earlier. Cultivar differences in amounts of M. nivale were most clear in stems during internode extension and when relatively large amounts of DNA were present. Such differences approximately reflected eyespot susceptibility, cv. Soissons containing most and cv. Lynx containing least DNA. The results emphasise the difficulty in relating diagnoses, by quantitative PCR or other means, at early growth stages when decisions to apply fungicides against stem-base disease are made, to later disease severity.  相似文献

Brachypodium distachyon (Bd) has established itself as an essential tool for comparative genomic studies in cereals and increasing attention is being paid to its potential as a model pathosystem. Eyespot and ramularia leaf spot (RLS) are important diseases of wheat, barley and other small‐grain cereals for which very little is known about the mechanisms of host resistance despite urgent requirements for plant breeders to develop resistant varieties. This work aimed to test the compatibility of interaction of two Bd accessions with the cereal pathogens Oculimacula spp. and Ramularia collocygni, the causal agents of eyespot and RLS diseases, respectively. Results showed that both Bd accessions developed symptoms similar to those on the natural host for all pathogen species tested. Microscopy images demonstrated that R. collo‐cygni produced secondary conidia and both Oculimacula spp. formed characteristic infection structures on successive tissue layers. Visual disease assessment revealed that quantitative differences in disease severity exist between the two Bd accessions. The results presented here provide the first evidence that Bd is compatible with the main causal agents of eyespot and RLS diseases, and suggest that future functional genetic studies can be undertaken to investigate the mechanisms of eyespot and RLS disease resistance using Bd.  相似文献

Four species so far classified in Pseudocercosporella or Ramulispora (hyphomycetes) are associated with eyespot disease symptoms of cereals. Two of these have been linked to teleomorphs that were described in Tapesia. Sequence data derived from the Internal Transcribed Spacer region (ITS1, 5.8S and ITS2) of the rDNA operon showed, however, that the eyespot fungi associated with Tapesia are not congeneric with Ramulispora sorghi, the type of Ramulispora. The genus name Tapesia is now rejected in favour of the conserved name Mollisia, which appears to comprise heterogeneous fungi. Tapesia yallundae is not closely related to the type of Mollisia, M. cinerea, but clusters separately, being more closely allied to species with Cadophora anamorphs. A new holomorph genus, Oculimacula, is therefore proposed for teleomorphs of the eyespot fungi, while the anamorphs are accommodated in Helgardia gen. nov.  相似文献

Apothecia of the eyespot fungus,Tapesia yallundae, were found on 0–18% of straws in plots of wheat stubble in February–March 1994. The fungicides carbendazim, prochloraz or carbendazim plus prochloraz had been applied repeatedly to the same plots in each of the previous 9 years in which successive wheat crops had been grown. The factors most strongly correlated with the incidence of apothecia were the incidence and severity of eyespot in the preceding wheat crop and the frequency of carbendazim-resistant W-type fungus in populations recovered from that wheat crop. Plots treated with carbendazim, which had previously had more disease and more resistance to carbendazim in the pathogen population relative to untreated plots, therefore yielded most apothecia. Plots treated with prochloraz, which had selected for predominantly R-type fungus and decreased eyespot, yielded few apothecia. Single-ascospore isolates were all of the W-type and were more frequently carbendazim-sensitive than expected, except those from plots treated only with carbendazim. None showed decreased sensitivity to prochloraz. The implications of applying fungicides regularly for controlling eyespot on the capability of the eyespot fungus for genetic variation through sexual reproduction are discussed.  相似文献

Tomato and strawberry are the most important protected crops in Lebanon and are seriously affected by grey mould disease, caused by Botrytis cinerea. In the present study, the fungicide sensitivity assays revealed medium to high frequencies of B. cinerea isolates resistant to benzimidazoles, dicarboximides, and anilinopyrimidines on tomato and strawberry. Fludioxonil- and boscalid-resistant mutants were uncommonly found at generally low frequency on both crops. Resistance to fenhexamid was detected in only one site on tomato but in most sites on strawberry with high frequencies, and the occurrence of resistance to QoI fungicides was ascertained on both crops. The majority of the tested isolates (>90%) exhibited multiple fungicide resistance, and isolates resistant to the seven antibotrydial fungicide classes were detected on strawberry in three locations. A high level of resistance was shown by B. cinerea mutants resistant to boscalid, fenhexamid, and QoI fungicides, while two levels of moderate and high resistance to anilinopyrimidines were identified. Genetic analysis revealed point mutations in the target genes commonly associated with resistance in B. cinerea isolates, with all mutants resistant to dicarboximides, fenhexamid, boscalid, and QoI fungicides carrying single-nucleotide polymorphims in BcOS1 (I365S/N, Q369P, and N373S), Erg27 (F412V/I), SdhB (H272R/Y), and cytb (G143A) genes, respectively. The general incorrect use of fungicides has caused the development and spread of fungicide resistance as a widespread phenomenon on protected tomato and strawberry in Lebanon. The implementation of appropriate antiresistance strategies is highly recommended.  相似文献

Resistance to fungicides is an evolutionary process resulting from the selection of advantageous genotypes in naturally diverse populations. Seven fungicide modes of action are authorised to control grey mould caused by Botrytis cinerea on grapevine in France, and five of them have encountered specific resistance, with variable frequencies in populations and possible consequences for field fungicide efficacy. Moreover, multidrug resistance is caused by fungicide efflux and allows a weak resistance towards six unrelated modes of action. Here, a review is given of the fungicide resistance status of B. cinerea in France, particularly in the vineyards of Champagne, which are the most affected. Recently developed resistance and recent findings concerning the associated resistance mechanisms are focused upon in particular. Finally, antiresistance strategies are presented, and examples of managed resistance are discussed in a more general manner with the aim of extending this knowledge to other crops and countries undergoing similar resistance problems. © 2013 Society of Chemical Industry  相似文献

Quinone outside inhibitors (QoIs) and succinate dehydrogenase inhibitors (SDHIs) are major groups of agricultural fungicides. However, resistance to some of these fungicides has been reported in a Japanese population of Puccinia horiana, the causal agent of chrysanthemum white rust disease. Because their mechanisms are not well understood, we investigated the existence of mutations in QoI and SDHI target protein-encoding genes. Eight out of nine isolates from cultivated chrysanthemum carried L275F and L299F amino acid substitutions in cytochrome b, the target protein of QoIs. These isolates showed 23- and 17-fold higher EC50 values for the QoI fungicides azoxystrobin and kresoxim-methyl, respectively, in basidiospore germination inhibitory tests, while they were hypersensitive to another QoI, famoxadone. All nine isolates were resistant to SDHI oxycarboxin and carried the I88F substitution in SdhC. This substitution was orthologous to the SdhC-I86F substitution found in some Brazilian isolates of the soybean rust fungus, Phakopsora pachyrhizi, showing reduced sensitivity to some SDHIs. Although the rarity of wild-type sensitive isolates, the subsequent limited number of comparisons between wild types and mutants, and a difficulty in applying reverse genetic analysis to this obligate parasite, are obstacles in making definitive conclusions, L275F and L299F in cytochrome b and SdhC-I88F are suspected to be responsible for the different patterns of sensitivity to QoI and for oxycarboxin-resistance in P. horiana, respectively.  相似文献

The development of resistance to chemical control agents needs continuous monitoring in Botrytis cinerea. 790 isolates from lettuce and other vegetable crops were collected from six widely separated sites in Greece and tested for their sensitivity to 11 fungicides from nine unrelated chemical groups. 44 of the isolates exhibited multiple resistance to fenhexamid (hydroxyanilides), azoxystrobin and pyraclostrobin (QoI’s), boscalid (SDHI’s), cyprodinil and pyrimethanil (anilinopyrimidines), fludioxonil (phenylpyrroles), carbendazim (benzimidazoles) and iprodione (dicarboximides). Thirty per cent of such phenotypes were detected in an experimental glasshouse with lettuce crops, the third year after commencing fungicide applications. The average resistance factor (Rf) for mycelial growth to fenhexamid, pyraclostrobin, boscalid, cyprodinil and fludioxonil, was over 40, 1,000, 100, 700 and 50, respectively. Some strains with high resistance to anilinopyrimidines (14 %) or moderate to fludioxonil (7 %) were detected even in isolates collected from vegetable crops prior to commercial use of these fungicides in Greece. Isolates with fludioxonil moderate resistance and fenhexamid high resistance, were detected for the first time in Greece. The results suggested the high risk in chemical control of grey mould due to development of resistance to most fungicides with site-specific modes of action. Isolates with resistance to fluazinam (phenylpyridinamines) and to chlorothalonil (phthalonitriles) were not found. The inclusion of appropriate multi-site inhibitors like chlorothalonil in fungicide anti-resistance strategies was indispensable.  相似文献

Zymoseptoria tritici is the causal agent of septoria tritici blotch (STB), a foliar wheat disease important worldwide. Succinate dehydrogenase inhibitors (SDHIs) have been used in cereals for effective control of STB for several years, but resistance towards SDHIs has been reported in several phytopathogenic fungi. Resistance mechanisms are target‐site mutations in the genes coding for subunits B, C and D of the succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) enzyme. Previous monitoring data in Europe indicated the presence of single isolates of Z. tritici with reduced SDHI sensitivity. These isolates carried mutations leading to amino acid exchanges: C‐T79N, C‐W80S in 2012; C‐N86S in 2013; B‐N225T and C‐T79N in 2014; and C‐V166M, B‐T268I, C‐N86S, C‐T79N and C‐H152R in 2015. The current study provides results from microtitre and greenhouse experiments to give an insight into the impact of different mutations in field isolates on various SDHIs. In microtitre tests, the highest EC50 values for all tested SDHIs were obtained with mutants carrying C‐H152R. Curative greenhouse tests with various SDHIs confirmed the findings of microtitre tests that isolates with C‐H152R are, in general, controlled with lower efficacy than isolates carrying B‐T268I, C‐T79N and C‐N86S. SDHI‐resistant isolates of Z. tritici found in the field were shown to have cross‐resistance towards all SDHIs tested. So far, SDHI‐resistant isolates of Z. tritici have been found in low frequencies in Europe. Therefore, FRAC recommendations for resistance management in cereals, including a limited number of applications, alternation and combination with other MOAs, should be followed to prolong SDHI field efficacy.  相似文献

Benzimidazole fungicides are important mixture components in strategies to combat fungicide resistance in Rhynchosporium secalis Davis. To monitor the performance of these strategies, a rapid, accurate assay has been developed to detect point mutations in the β-tubulin gene which confers resistance of benzimidazoles. The β-tubulin gene of a benzimidazole-resistant strain of R. secalis has been cloned and sequenced. Except for the difference in the position of one of its six introns, this gene showed a strong homology with other β-tubulin genes from filamentous fungi. Resistance was related to a point mutation in codon 198 which caused a glutamic acid to glycine change in resistant field strains, but glutamic acid to lysine in a laboratory mutant. A DNA fragment surrounding codon 198 was amplified directly from diseased lesions using a ‘nested’ set of PCR primers. Combining PCR amplificiation of a target DNA sequence with hybridization of Allele-Specific Oligonucleotide probes (ASOs, 15-mers) allowed accurate detection of benzimidazole resistance. Only two probes, one sensitive and one resistant, were sufficient to monitor current field populations. Detection was achieved using either 32P-labelled probe, or non-radioactively using a biotin-labelled probe coupled to streptavidin/alkaline phosphatase. This rapid method using ASOS can detect benzimidazole resistance within 48 h compared with 6–8 weeks by conventional assay procedures.  相似文献
