This project aims to determine how fungicide resistance evolves in the fungus Leptosphaeria maculans, the major pathogen of the oilseed crop canola. Global food production has become more reliant on the use of antifungal agents to protect crops, however these advances are now threatened by the emergence of drug-resistant microbes. The knowledge generated by this project will be used to reduce the risk of resistance evolving in populations of the blackleg fungus. This will have economic benefits through ensuring increased canola yields, while providing health and environmental benefits through minimisation of use of fungicides.

本项目旨在确定油料作物油菜籽的主要病原菌——黄斑细球菌（leptosphaia maculans）对杀菌剂的抗性是如何演变的。全球粮食生产越来越依赖于使用抗真菌剂来保护作物，然而这些进步现在受到耐药微生物出现的威胁。该项目产生的知识将用于减少黑腿菌种群中耐药性进化的风险。这将通过确保增加油菜籽产量产生经济效益，同时通过尽量减少杀菌剂的使用提供健康和环境效益。
