Since around 1980 apple rot caused by Botryosphaeria dothidea has become prevalent throughout the growing areas in Korea, during which period chemical controls have been executed with no notable improvement. Results of investigations on resistance of the causal fungus to its control chemical are as followings; The susceptible fungal isolates showed no mycelial growth at $150;{mu}g/ml$ of benomyl whereas the resistant isolates showed 7-13 mm growth at $300;{mu}g/ml$ and 6-8 mm at $2,400;{mu}g/ml$ of this fungicide. At the latter high concentration, spore germination of the resistant isolates was 5-9% while that of the susceptible isolates was 0%. Within the range of $20-2,400;{mu}g/ml$ tested, the susceptible isolates were unable to form pycnidia, but the resistant isolates formed abundant pycnidia at the lower concentration with decreasing pycnidia along with the higher concentration.
