Synthesis of new compounds related to the commercial fungicide tricyclazole

BACKGROUND: Tricyclazole is a commercial fungicide used to control rice blast. As part of re‐registration activities, samples of metabolites and process impurities are required. In addition, isotopically labeled tricyclazole samples are also required. RESULTS: Four new compounds related to tricyclazole are reported. An isotopically labeled sample of tricyclazole was prepared that contained two ¹⁵N atoms and one ¹³C atom. Radiolabeled tricyclazole with ¹⁴C at the triazole C3 position was also synthesized. A new process impurity in technical tricyclazole was identified and synthesized. A new metabolite of tricyclazole was identified, independently synthesized and characterized by X‐ray crystallography. CONCLUSION: A previously unreported metabolite of tricyclazole has been identified and structurally characterized. In addition, a new process impurity has been identified by independent synthesis. Identification of these new compounds has facilitated the continued registration of this important fungicide. Copyright © 2011 Society of Chemical Industry     

Resistance mechanism to carboxylic acid amide fungicides in the cucurbit downy mildew pathogen Pseudoperonospora cubensis

BACKGROUND: Pseudoperonospora cubensis, the causal oomycete agent of cucurbit downy mildew, is responsible for enormous crop losses in many species of Cucurbitaceae, particularly in cucumber and melon. Disease control is mainly achieved by combinations of host resistance and fungicide applications. However, since 2004, resistance to downy mildew in cucumber has been overcome by the pathogen, thus driving farmers to rely only on fungicide spray applications, including carboxylic acid amide (CAA) fungicides. Recently, CAA‐resistant isolates of P. cubensis were recovered, but the underlying mechanism of resistance was not revealed. The purpose of the present study was to identify the molecular mechanism controlling resistance to CAAs in P. cubensis. RESULTS: The four CesA (cellulose synthase) genes responsible for cellulose biosynthesis in P. cubensis were characterised. Resistant strains showed a mutation in the CesA3 gene, at position 1105, leading to an amino acid exchange from glycine to valine or tryptophan. Cross‐resistance tests with different CAAs indicated that these mutations lead to resistance against all tested CAAs. CONCLUSION: Point mutations in the CesA3 gene of P. cubensis lead to CAA resistance. Accurate monitoring of these mutations among P. cubensis populations may improve/facilitate adequate recommendation/deployment of fungicides in the field.

Method for rapid detection of the PvCesA3 gene allele conferring resistance to mandipropamid, a carboxylic acid amide fungicide, in Plasmopara viticola populations

BACKGROUND: The occurrence of carboxylic acid amide (CAA)‐fungicide‐resistant Plasmopara viticola populations is becoming a serious problem in the control of grapevine downy mildew worldwide. RESULTS: The authors have developed a method, which utilises PCR‐RFLP, for the rapid detection of resistance to the CAA fungicide mandipropamid in P. viticola populations. With this method, a glycine‐to‐serine substitution at codon 1105 of the cellulose synthase gene PvCesA3 of CAA‐fungicide‐resistant P. viticola was easily detected, although no resistant P. viticola was detected from 398 isolates in Japan. CONCLUSION: It is proposed that the PCR‐RFLP method is a reliable tool for the rapid detection of CAA‐fungicide‐resistant P. viticola isolates. Only 4 h was required from the sampling of symptoms to the phenotyping of fungicide resistance. Copyright © 2011 Society of Chemical Industry     

7种防霉剂对烟仓霉变微生物的抑制作用及防霉效果的初步研究

测定了纳他霉素制剂等7种防霉剂对溜曲霉等10种引起广西仓储烟叶霉变的主要微生物的抑制作用,选出4种防霉剂进行了烟叶防霉试验。结果表明,在烟叶含水量为18%时,纳他霉素制剂2 000 m g/kg、富马酸二甲酯2 000 m g/kg和山梨酸钾2 000 m g/kg能有效抑制霉菌的生长繁殖,防止烟叶发霉。但在烟叶含水量为25%和35%时,防霉剂的防霉效果并不理想,这表明防霉剂的使用可以作为烟叶防霉的一种辅助手段。

Decreased sensitivity to pyrazophos of cucumber and gherkin powdery mildew

In some cucumber and gherkin greenhouses in the Netherlands, where Curamil (a.i. pyrazophos) had been used for control of powdery mildew, unsatisfactory disease control was obtained in recent years. Laboratory tests revealed a decreased sensitivity of the pathogen to the fungicide. The fitness and the competitive ability of pyrazophos resistant strains in absence of the fungicide appeared to be somewhat lower than that of the normal, sensitive strains. The implications with respect to disease control in practice are discussed.Samenvatting In enkele kassen, waar Curamil (a.i. pyrazofos) in 1977 aangewend werd ter bestrijding van meeldauw op komkommers en augurken, werd onvoldoende effekt met dit middel tegen deze ziekte verkregen. Toetsing in het laboratorium bracht een verminderde gevoeligheid van het pathogeen voor het fungicide aan het licht (Tabel 1). Bij afwezigheid van pyrazofos bleek het competitief vermogen (Tabel 2) en de vitaliteit (Tabel 3) van de pyrazofos resistente isolaten wat lager te zijn dan die van het normale, gevoelige pathogeen. De betekenis hiervan met betrekking tot de ziektebestrijding wordt besproken.     

Evaluation of phenylaminopyrimidines as antifungal protein kinase inhibitors

The effects of diverse phenylaminopyrimidines (PAP), namely PAP-pyridines (type A), PAP-pyrazoles (type B) and PAP-thiazoles (type C), on Neurospora crassa Shear & Dodge has been investigated. The results revealed that type A strongly inhibit the in vitro growth of N crassa, whereas types B and C are much less active. A significant correlation was observed between the Neurospora growth inhibition and the intrinsic activity of type A compounds on the cyclin-dependent protein kinase p34(CDC2) of starfish, suggesting that the target of phenylaminopyrimidines in fungi is a cyclin-dependent protein kinase (CDK). The phenylaminopyrimidine-binding CDKs Phoss (major band) and CDC2 (minor band) involved in phosphorus uptake, glycogen synthesis and the cell cycle were identified from N crassa by affinity chromatography on phenylaminopyrimidine-sepharose. Comparative experiments with different protein kinases revealed the importance of the side chain of phenylaminopyrimidines for their target selectivity. A type B compound was found to selectively inhibit the MAP-kinase OS-2 involved in the osmoregulatory pathway of Neurospora.     

Characterization of the bound residues of the fungicide cyprodinil formed in plant cell suspension cultures of wheat

The non-extractable residues of the fungicide cyprodinil formed in heterotrophic cell suspension cultures of wheat were studied by application of [2-pyrimidyl-14C] or [2-pyrimidyl-13C]cyprodinil. The main objective was to examine whether solid-state and liquid 13C NMR spectroscopy can be used to examine plant bound residues of pesticides. For 14C experiments, wheat suspensions grown on glucose as carbon source were treated with 10 mg litre(-1) of 14C-cyprodinil. After incubation for 12 days, 20% of applied 14C was detected as non-extractable residues. The cell debris were treated with 0.1 M HCl (reflux), 1.0 M HCl (reflux), buffer, or 2 M NaOH (50 degrees C); Bj?rkman lignin and acidolysis lignin fractions were also prepared from the debris. Radioactivity liberated and solubilized by these procedures was examined by thin-layer chromatography and high-performance liquid chromatography. The results showed that cyprodinil and primary metabolites contributed to the fungicide's bound residues. Most of the residues (12% of applied 14C) remained associated with polar or polymeric/oligomeric endogenous cell materials in a stable manner. For the study with 13C-cyprodinil, wheat suspensions were cultivated on 13C-depleted glucose for four growth cycles, resulting in maximum 13C depletion of the natural cell components to about 0.10%. During the fourth cycle, 13C-labelled cyprodinil was applied, and cells were incubated (12 days). Cell debris was prepared and examined by solid-state 13C NMR spectroscopy. Debris was then treated as described above in the 14C experiment. Solubilized fractions were analyzed by liquid 13C NMR spectroscopy. However, none of the 13C NMR spectra recorded gave utilizable or unambiguous results, and all exhibited large inconsistencies, especially concerning the data from the conventional 14C experiment.
