We have transformed Saccharomyces cerevisiae with a genomic library contained in the replicative vector pFL44. The resulting transformants were screened for resistance to fenpropidin, a specific inhibitor of sterol 14-reductase. A plasmid was isolated that transformed yeast both to resistance

The residue levels and dissipation rate of fenpropidin in wheat and soil were investigated by LC-MS/MS and GC-MS, respectively. The dissipation rates of fenpropidin were described using first-order kinetics and its half-life ranged from 3.1 to 3.3 days in wheat

An enzyme assay for inhibitors of fungal sterol delta 14-reductase employing isocratic reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography is described. A Hypersil 5-microns octadecylsilyl (ODS) column (250 mm x 4.6 mm I.D.) was used and a mobile phase consisting of methanol-water-ethanol (86:4:10
Few data sets of pesticide volatilization from plants at the field scale are available. In this work, we report measurements of fenpropidin and chlorothalonil volatilization on a wheat field using the aerodynamic gradient (AG) method and an inverse dispersion modeling
Fusarium graminearum, the causal agent of wheat head blight, shows intrinsic resistance to amine fungicides. It is commonly accepted that the amines target sterol C-14 reductase and sterol Δ(8)-Δ(7) isomerase of ergosterol biosynthesis, encoded by the genes ERG24 and ERG2
