Importantly, the newly discovered case in Scaddan has a higher resistance to Group 3 DMI fungicides than the previous identified cases.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>According to CCDM Fungicide Research Group team leader Fran Lopez-Ruiz, the extent of this new type of fungicide resistance in WA is yet to be established and may not be limited to Scaddan.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>\u201cThe populations collected from Scaddan are showing a higher resistance to the DMI fungicides tebuconazole and propiconazole, moderate levels of resistance to prothioconazole and low resistance to epoxiconazole,\u201d Dr Lopez-Ruiz said.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>CCDM researcher Wesley Mair has been leading the disease testing in the laboratory and is currently investigating barley samples from other areas of the grainbelt to determine the distribution of this new resistance across WA.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>\u201cIt is early days in our attempts to quantify the spread of this form of resistance, but the sampling process is well underway and, as analysis progresses, we will be able to report any further findings of resistance,\u201d Mr Mair said.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>\u201cOngoing sampling and testing is crucial to helping the CCDM team identify not only new cases of fungicide resistance, but also which fungicides are effective in managing this problem.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>\u201cWe can then assist growers, agronomists and advisers to make informed decisions when it comes to crop and disease management.\u201d<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>CCDM co-director Professor Mark Gibberd said this latest resistance discovery highlighted the importance of maintaining a high level of monitoring of disease pathogens in the landscape.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>\u201cThe Australian agricultural production system is becoming increasing dependent on both fungicides and improved crop varieties for pathogen control,\u201d Professor Gibberd said.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>\u201cAt the CCDM, research funded by GRDC and Curtin University focusses on the use and sustainability of fungicides, as well as genetic improvement of crops.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>\u201cBoth approaches need to occur in concert and the recent findings highlight the rate of change that is occurring within the landscape and the need to consider implications for the long-term.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>\u201cIt is now apparent that disease control measures for one pathogen may be potentially influencing the development of fungicide resistance in other pathogens.\u201d<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Dr Lopez-Ruiz has advised WA growers to consider implementing integrated disease management strategies for the further protection of crops this season and in future seasons.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>\u201cWe do know the over-use of fungicides is a key contributor to the problem of fungicide resistance, so users should adopt best practice methods of application,\u201d he said.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>\u201cAvoiding over-spraying and repeated use of the same fungicide group will help to ensure the longevity and effectiveness of the products we have at our disposal in the fight against crop disease.\u201d<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>The discovery of DMI-resistant NFNB populations in barley in WA follows the detection of two cases of DMI resistance in the pathogen responsible for another type of net blotch \u2013 spot form of net blotch (SFNB) \u2013 in WA\u2019s Esperance and South Stirling regions in 2016 and 2017.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Dr Lopez-Ruiz suggests growers consider some of the following fungicide strategies to assist with net blotch control during the current growing season:\n<\/div>\n<div>\u2022 Choose mixtures with different modes of action (if available)<\/div>\n<div>\u2022 Never apply the same Group 3 fungicide twice in a row<\/div>\n<div>\u2022 Apply fungicides from Groups 7 and 11 no more than once per season<\/div>\n<div>\u2022 Incorporate the use of seed dressing, in-furrow and foliar products containing fungicide mixtures from different chemical groups (such as 3 (DMI), 7 (SDHI) and 11 (Qol)) &#8211; in combination with limited use of propiconazole and no tebuconazole use<\/div>\n<div>\u2022 Avoid using tebuconazole as a stand-alone product in barley for any disease<\/div>\n<div>\u2022 Use other DMI-based mixtures (such as propiconazole, prothioconazole or epoxiconazole) only once, followed by mixtures containing another actives (preferably from the SDHI or QoI groups)<\/div>\n<div>\u2022 If resistance is present, or suspected, avoid or minimise use of that mode of action &#8211; this will only further select for resistance<\/div>\n<div>\u2022 Do not exceed label rates.<\/div>\n<div>\nIt is also recommended growers consider implementing across-season tactics to reduce the risk of net blotch outbreaks and resistance selection.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>These include rotating crops or managing stubble to reduce disease carry-over and selecting more disease-resistant barley varieties to reduce potential disease severity.<\/div>\n<div>\n<div class=\"toolbtns tl\">\n<h4 class=\"p-source c-999 cb fr pt5\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Source<\/strong>: <a class=\"c-orange\" style=\"color: #000000;\" href=\"http:\/\/news.agropages.com\/Media\/MediaIndex-561.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Grains Research &amp;
