Is the efficacy of biological control against plant diseases likely to be more durable than that of chemical pesticides?
The durability of a control method for plant protection is defined as the persistence of its
efficacy in space and time. It depends on (i) the selection pressure exerted by it on …

The cdr1B efflux transporter is associated with non-cyp51a-mediated itraconazole resistance in Aspergillus fumigatus
Objectives Recent increases in triazole resistance in Aspergillus fumigatus have been
attributed primarily to target site (cyp51A) mutations. A recent survey of resistant isolates in …
