Overview

Mutations in ERG24 induce fungicide resistance in wheat powdery mildew, indicating alternative antifungal options.

Key Points

  • Resistance mutations in ERG24 affect wheat powdery mildew's response to antifungals.
  • Mutations show minimal impact on yeast growth, suggesting potential for developing new treatments.
  • Predictive modeling reveals that antifungals may obstruct substrate access to the catalytic site.
  • Findings may guide the design of novel antifungals targeting ERG24 as alternatives to existing inhibitors.
