ABSTRACT
Screening of field isolates of
Colletotrichum gloeosporioides
from various mango cultivars from markets and orchards in
Thailand identified 113 carbendazim-resistant isolates. Isolates with a highly-resistant phenotype (HR) grew well on Potato Dextrose Agar (PDA) amended with carbendazim even at ≥500 mg/l. Isolates with carbendazim-resistant phenotype had a conspicuous
mutation at a particular site in the β-tubulin (
TUB2
) gene sequence. The sequence of
TUB2
in HR isolates showed a single nucleotide
transversion of adenine to cytosine, resulting in a substitution at codon 198 from glutamic acid (GAG) in wild type to alanine (G
CG) in
HR isolates. This is the first report of the molecular determination of field isolates for benzimidazole fungicide resistance in Southeast
Asia in
C. gloeosporioides
causing mango anthracnose.
