Plant diseases are often caused by a consortium of pathogens competing with one another to gain a foothold in the infection niche. Nevertheless, studies are often limited to a single pathogen on its host. In Europe, fusarium head blight (FHB) of wheat is caused by multipleFusariumspecies, includingFusariumgraminearumandF. poae. Here, we combined a ...

Triazole molecules are used to manage invasive aspergillosis, a fungal infection mainly due to Aspergillus fumigatus. A. fumigatus is not a phytopathogen, but, as it is widespread in soils, triazole fungicides have an unintended impact on it, selecting resistant populations' in environment. Thus, to maintain our ability to control fungal infections...

Agricultural practices often involve tank-mixing and co-application of insecticides with fungicides to control crop pests. However, natural methods relying on biological control agents such as hymenopteran parasitoids have been shown to be highly effective in suppressing crop pest populations. The current body of insecticide risk assessment data ac...

Global contamination of streams by a large variety of compounds, such as nutrients and pesticides, may exert a high pressure on aquatic organisms, including microbial communities and their activity of organic matter decomposition. In this study, we assessed the potential interaction between nutrients and a fungicide and herbicide [tebuconazole (TBZ...

Adverse outcome pathways (AOPs) describe causal relationships between molecular perturbation and adverse cellular effects and are being increasingly adopted for linking in vitro mechanistic toxicology to in vivo data from regulatory toxicity studies. In this work, a case study was performed by developing a bioassay toolbox to assess key events in t...

Lanosterol 14-α demethylase is a key enzyme intermediating the biosynthesis of ergosterol in fungi, and the target of azole fungicides. Studies have suggested that Leptosphaeria maculans and L. biglobosa, the causal agents of phoma stem canker on oilseed rape, differ in their sensitivity to some azoles, which could be driving pathogen frequency cha...

Loss of biodiversity and altered ecosystem functioning are driven by the cumulative effects of multiple natural and anthropogenic stressors affecting both quantity and quality of water resources. Here we performed a 40-day laboratory microcosm experiment to assess the individual and combined effects of drought and the model fungicide tebuconazole (...

Soils in coffee farms may be contaminated with copper (Cu) due to intensive and long-term use of Cu-based fungicides. This legacy of Cu contamination may pose risks for contaminating lower soil layers and underground water, or contamination of food crops cultivated on these soils. High concentrations of Cu, strongly exceeding international standard...
