Although incorporating resistance genes has been an effective management tool for soybean breeders, surveys of soybean fields in the Midwest US indicate that some P. sojae strains are capable of overcoming all known resistance genes. While P. sojae is known to have a very narrow host range, it can also infect Lupinus (lupine), varieties of which may provide potential sources for novelDraft resistance genes that can be genetically engineered into soybean.
