Phytophthora Sojae Infecting Soybean: Pathotype Diversity, New Sources of Resistance and Interaction with the Soybean Cyst Nematode
<p>Phytophthora root and stem rot, caused by <em>Phytophthora sojae</em> Kaufmann and Gerdemann, is an important disease of soybean (<em>Glycine max</em> L.) in South Dakota. To gain a better understanding of the importance of P. sojae in South Dakota, specifically pathotype diversity, …

Characterization of oomycete species causing soybean diseases in Illinois and management applications
Phytophthora root and stem rot (PRR) and seedling diseases caused by oomycetes, are two of the most important yield limitations for soybean production in the US Midwest. Several species of Phytophthora and Pythium cause PRR and seedlings diseases, respectively. PRR is managed using cultivars with …

Understanding Plant Pathosystems in Wild Relatives of Cultivated Crop Plants
As the global population rises, the demand for food increases which underscores a need for improvement in food security. Disease pressures are a major concern surrounding sustainable agriculture. Static crop populations, containing little to no genetic diversity, are vulnerable to diverse pathogen …

Soybean aphid intra-biotype variability based on colonization of specific soybean genotypes, resistance responses of soybean genotypes to pathogen infection after the application of chemical elicitors, and resistance to charcoal rot identified in ancestral soybean germplasm
… aphid resistance gene Rag2, unlike biotypes 1 and 2, but similar to soybean aphid biotype 3. Two no-choice experiments compared the virulence of the Moline isolate with biotype 3. In both experiments, differences in aphid population counts were not significant (P > 0.05) on soybean genotypes …
