trade names |
patented names under which a product sold -same active ingredient can be sold under many different trade names -just change some of inerts usually |
|
chemical group or class |
name given to a group of chemicals share common bio mode of action and have similar structure -biologically do similar things |
|
fungicides applied to |
Propagative organs, soil, harvestable products
|
|
fungicides are |
preventive (most) -before disease occurs or first appearance symptoms curative (few) -active vs. pathogens already in plant |
|
contact fungicides |
remain on surface, absorbed -effective vs. broad range -kill fungus readily -reapplied often during rain or new growth |
|
translaminar fungicides |
-protectants -can be applied to top and redistributes itself to lower leaf surface |
|
systemic |
get into the vessels to move up/b=down -penetrants -mode of action specific often 1 metabolic site -don't wash off |
|
-types of systemic |
-Xylem-mobile: moves upward in the xylem and can enter new tissues as the plant grows
-Amphimobile (xylem and phloem-mobile): moves both up and down in the plant |
|
Fungicide modes of action |
-interfere w/ cell division -inhibit activity of certain enzymes -alter function of cell membranes |
|
Fungicides specific modes of application/action |
single site (specific site)= only one metabolic process in fungus (more likely to generate resistance) multiple site= affects more than one |
|
qualitative resistance |
fungicide resistance from modification of 1 major gene - |
|
qualitative |
fungicide resistance occurs when several interacting genes mutate -range of sensitivity -erosion of control, grows more resistant eventually cannot be controlled with chemical |
|
How resistance develops |
|
|
Specific vs. multi-site modes of action |
specific only affects one metabolic site, other affects multiple
|
|
Monogenic resistance: |
factors for resistance controlled by only 1 pathogen gene |
|
Polygenic resistance |
factors for resistance controlled by 1+ pathogen gene
|
|
Resistance mechanisms within the fungal cell |
reduced uptake, detox, producing enzymes, alt metabolic path, no active compound
|
|
Fungicide Resistance Action Committee (FRAC groups) |
provide fungicide management guidelines to prolong effectiveness of fungicides
|
|
Cross resistance |
resistant to closely related fungicides
|
|
purpose of fungicides |
reduce existing inoculum
protect high value crops from polycyclic and monocyclic (when cultural fails and inoculum long term) |
|
traditional fungicides |
first was Bordeaux (copper sulfate + lime)
based on inorganic elements |
|
biocontrol |
deliberate exploitation of microorganisms by ppl to reduce inculum/protect plants |
|
Abiotic factors |
not living, not transmissible progressive harm to plant cause injury may affect plant's susceptibility to biotic pathogens |
|
Noninfectious |
no new inoculum produced |
|
short term impact of drought |
-Stomates close, photosynthesis and growth may slow/cease -green parts, needles, and leaves shrink and turn colors and wilt -Stress in groups b/c common conditions |
|
long term drought stress |
reduced root/shoot growth death of tissues (cambium, canopy) radial cracks decline in vigor compacted soil |
|
macronutrients |
required in large quantities: N, P, K, Ca, Mg, S |
|
micronutrients |
needed in small amounts: B, Cl, Cu, Fe, Mn, Mo, Zn |
|
Monocyclic disease management strategy |
reducing the amount or efficacy of primary (or initial) inoculum |
|
Monocyclic diseases |
post harvest and many root diseases |
|
Polycyclic disease management strategy |
reducing primary inoculum as well as the rate of infection ex. apple scab, downy mildew, late blight of potato and tomato |
|
epiphytotic |
plant epidemic: disease change over period of time |
|
weber fechner law of visual discrimination |
man's ability to see differences decreases by logarithm of intensity of stimulus |
|
disease gradient |
severity on single plants should decrese as diisease approaches 0 or 100% -foliar diseases, air-borne dispersal |
|
logistic growth model |
polycyclic diseases -phases: exponential, logistic, terminal |
|
linear phase |
proportion of infected leaves at time t = initial amount of disease -increase is constant |
|
exponential phase |
infection chain rate of disease directly proportional to amount of disease present |
|
logistic phase |
-logical in a sense -rate of disease increase is directly proportional to amount of diseased and healthy tissue available - |
|
monomolecular growth model |
-linear phase as increase in disease is fairly constant -terminal phase when susceptible tissue decreases with the rate of disease |
|
(AUDPC) Calculation |
trapezoidal method
-measuring area under the curve to calc avg disease intensity btw periods of time |
|
Foliar diseases |
nematodes |
