Vacuolar H+-pyrophosphatase AVP1 is involved in amine fungicide tolerance in Arabidopsis thaliana and provides tridemorph resistance in yeast

Amine fungicides are widely used as crop protectants. Their success is believed to be related to their ability to inhibit postlanosterol sterol biosynthesis in fungi, in particular sterol-Δ8,Δ7-isomerases and sterol-Δ14-reductases, with a concomitant accumulation of toxic abnormal sterols. However,...
