Characterization of mutants with single and combined Qi and Qo site mutations in Saccharomyces cerevisiae reveals interactions between the picolinamide fungicide CAS-649 and azoxystrobin

Résumé

Picolinamide and strobilurin fungicides bind to the Qi and Qo sites on cytochrome b, respectively, and target many of the same plant pathogens. Using Saccharomyces cerevisiae as a model system, we explore effects of amino acid changes at each site on sensitivity to a fungicide acting at the opposite site and examine the relationship between altered sensitivity and growth penalty. In addition, double mutants containing the G143A or F129L mutations responsible for strobilurin resistance in combination with Qi site mutations that confer resistance to picolinamides are characterized in terms of their sensitivity to QiI and QoI fungicides and growth rate. Mutants containing amino acid changes at the Qo site varied in their growth rate and sensitivity to the picolinamide CAS-649, and increased sensitivity was associated with a greater growth penalty. Conversely, changes at the Qi site affected sensitivity to azoxystrobin and also showed a correlation between increased sensitivity and reduced growth. There was no overall correlation between resistance to azoxystrobin and CAS-649 among mutants, however negative cross-resistance occurred in the case of mutations which conferred resistance to either compound and also carried a growth penalty. These results suggest the use of QoI fungicides to delay the emergence of pathogen resistance to QiIs, and vice versa. Double mutants containing G143A or F129L in combination with Qi site changes N31K, G37C/V or L198F that cause resistance to picolinamides generally exhibited lower resistance factors for both azoxystrobin and CAS-649 than corresponding resistant strains with a single mutation. Reduced growth was observed for all F129L-containing double mutants, whereas the growth rate of double mutants containing G143A was significantly reduced only by the Qi site mutations N31K and G37V that confer a larger growth penalty. Our results suggest that resistance to picolinamides in pathogens could emerge more readily in a strobilurin-sensitive genetic background than in a strobilurin-resistant one.
