The Checkpoint Kinase SsChk2 Mediates Tebuconazole Resistance via Modulating Ergosterol Biosynthesis in Sclerotinia sclerotiorum.
Sclerotinia stem rot caused by Sclerotinia sclerotiorum severely constrains global crop production. This study explored the regulatory role of checkpoint kinase SsChk2 in tebuconazole resistance. Bioassays indicated that ΔSsChk2 mutants showed reduced sensitivity to three demethylation inhibitors (DMIs), compared with...
