A novel fungicide is introduced and widely applied to cerealcrops. After five years, resistant genotypes of the fungal pathogenare detected at a frequency of about 1%; resistance is widelydistributed across the pathogenâs range. Within two years, thesehave become so common that the fungicide becomes worthless.
Explain how this pattern can be explained by the basic featuresof natural selection. Include in your answer:
A brief description of what natural selection is.
The conditions that must be met in order for natural selectionto occur.
How natural selection explains the scenario above.
