破解丙环唑控旺″密码″:华南农大团队发现BraALA3靶标,开启叶菜″免药矮化″基因育种新路径
华南农业大学绿色农药全国重点实验室徐汉虹/林菲团队在《Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry》(1区Top,IF=6.7)杂志发表最新成果《BraALA3 Homologues Mediate Propiconazole Effects on Growth of Flowering Chinese Cabbage》,为叶菜安全生产找到″减药替药″新路径。这是该团队继发现三唑类农药靶向真菌中P型ATP酶后(Gao et al., 2026, Advanced Agrochem),在植物上关于三唑类农药控旺机制的又一进展。
喹诺酮类杀菌剂——噁喹酸/喹菌酮
噁喹酸(oxolinic acid)是1968年由住友化学开发的喹诺酮类杀菌剂,也是以4-喹诺酮(4-Quinolone)为先导化合物开发的医药、农业及渔业用杀菌剂。作为第一代的喹诺酮类杀菌剂,噁喹酸目前在国内仅被用作渔业用杀菌剂,并未有农药方面的登记。但在农业应用方面,噁喹酸对多种植物细菌性病害都有较好的防治效果,如水稻细菌性叶枯病、水稻立枯病、十字花科软腐病、马铃薯黑胫病、番茄溃疡病、黄瓜细菌性叶斑病、桃树流胶病、梨树火疫病等。
