Interaction between Phytophthora megasperma f. sp. glycinea and Glycine max

The Glycine max (soybean): Phytophthora megasperma f. sp. glycinea (Pmg) pathosystem has served as a model for elucidating the mechansim of incompatibility in gene-for-gene interactions. This interaction was accurately and precisely investigated on the taproots of aeroponically-grown soybeans. An aeroponics system, developed for this investigation, provided facile access to the roots for direct application of inoculum, observations and measurements. Taproots were inoculated by submerging the root tip in a zoospore suspension.
