Germination Structure of Seeds Quote
Germination Structure of Seeds Quote: Thomas Fuller's Gnomologia, 1732: "The greatest Oaks have been little Acorns." Seeds are found in a staggering array of shapes and sizes, but the process by which seeds germinate is similar in all species.

In the genus Phytophthora some closely related species have a broad host range, while others are very host specific. The aim of this project was to gain an understanding of the mechanisms underlying the differentiation of a subgroup of root-infecting Phytophthora species and to gain knowledge about the plant immune responses triggered by distantly related oomycetes that adapted to the same legume host. We investigated the zoospore chemotaxis of legume-root infecting Phytophthora species to different isoflavonoid compounds and explored a possible connection to host preference. Our results showed that specific chemotaxis towards host isoflavones is of limited importance in Phytophthora sojae and Phytophthora vignae, while, specific chemotaxis of Phytophthora pisi and Phytophthora niederhauserii indicated an adaptation to their pathogenicity on the host and lack of pathogenicity on non-host plants.

Genetic Mapping of Resistance to Aphanomyces Root Rot in Alfalfa *E
Genetic mapping of resistance to Aphanomyces root rot in alfalfa15 Samac, D.A.*, Dornbusch, M. R., Bucciarelli, B., Miller, S. S. and Yu, L.-X. USDA-Agricultural Research Service *e-mail: [email protected] KEYWORDS: Aphanomyces euteiches, genotyping by sequencing, NBS-LRR resistance genes Aphanomyces root rot (ARR), caused by the oomycete Aphanomyces euteiches, is one of the most important yield-limiting factors in production of legumes. In Europe, it is the main limiting factor for pea production while in the United States it is one of the most important diseases of alfalfa and pea (Gaulin et al., 2007). The disease causes stunting and death of alfalfa seedlings with complete stand loss occurring in wet and poorly drained soils. Non-lethal damage to seedling roots reduces forage yields and winter survival. The pathogen can infect adult plants during wet periods to cause loss of feeder roots and root nodules, reducing nitrogen fixation, forage yield, and stand life. Varieties with resistance to ARR became widely available in the 1990s; however, failure of resistant varieties identified a second race of the pathogen. Recent reports of failure of varieties with resistance to both race 1 and race 2 suggest that additional pathogenic races are present in alfalfa production fields. The goals of this research were to: (i) determine the prevalence of race 1 and race 2 strains in Minnesota and New York; (ii) identify novel strains of the pathogen; (iii) characterize the race-specific resistance to Aphanomyces root rot; and (iv) map resistance genes in order to facilitate breeding for resistance and to clarify race/resistance gene relationships. -

Early Soybean Growth and Development
EARLY SOYBEAN GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT A soybean seed has two distinct parts: the cotyledons and the embryo. The two cotyledons are the main food storage structure, which supply food during emergence and for the seven to ten days after emergence through the V1 growth stage. The embryo itself is comprised of three parts. 1. The radicle is the first root and it’s the first part of the embryo to penetrate the seed coat. Lateral roots form from the radicle, and tiny root hairs then develop on the lateral roots. Root hairs are the main absorbing surface of the entire root system. A soybean’s root system branches and rebranches within the first four to five weeks after planting, with the bulk of root mass persisting in the top six inches of soil. 2. The hypocotyl is the stem below the cotyledon. It begins to elongate after the radicle and forms an arch, which is pushed upward. As the arch breaks the soil surface, it pulls the cotyledons and epicotyl up. The uppermost cells of the hypocotyl stop growing as cells on the underside continue to straighten the arch. This process lifts the cotyledons into an upright position. 3. The epicotyl is comprised of the small leaves, stem and the apical growing point. The epicotyl is protected between the cotyledons until after emergence. The loss of a cotyledon is not lethal to the seedling, but damage to the epicotyl is. The hypocotyl arch is a large structure that is relative to seed size, utilizing considerable seed energy to push through the soil. -

Meeting Program
Oomycete Molecular Genetics Network Meeting March 10 to March 12 2013 Asilomar Conference Grounds Pacific Grove, CA Oomycete Molecular Genetics Network Meeting March 10 to March 12, 2013 Asilomar Conference Grounds Pacific Grove, CA The Oomycete Molecular Genetics Research Network was initially funded by an NSF Research Coordination Network grant in 2001. The purpose of our annual meeting is to promote communication and collaboration, and minimize duplication of effort within the worldwide Oomycete molecular genetics community. The oomycete molecular genetics community now numbers well over one hundred labs from across the world, and papers on oomycetes attract a readership that goes well beyond the community itself. The Oomycete Molecular Genetics Conference alternates between USA and Eurasia, and returns this year to Asilomar, California. This year’s meeting will cover some of the latest research on Effector Biology, Genomics and Oomycete evolution and population biology. With over 100 attendees expected, this meeting represents the largest network meeting held in the US.

APHANOMYCES ROOT ROT in PEAS and LENTILS in Western Canada
APHANOMYCES ROOT ROT IN PEAS AND LENTILS in Western Canada albertapulse.com manitobapulse.ca saskpulse.com @albertapulse @mbpulsegrowers @saskpulse ROOT ROTS Root rot in peas and lentils is caused by a complex of diseases that affect the belowground portion of the developing plant, leading to poor performing pulse crops. The organisms that cause the disease are seed- or soil-borne and can infect the plant at any stage. Unfortunately, once root rot has set in, there is nothing that can be done. Understanding the disease, identifying the risks for root rot infection, and thorough planning for prevention are the only current options. Aphanomyces Root Rot DNA testing conducted on root rots in Alberta, Manitoba Aphanomyces root rot is caused by Aphanomyces and Saskatchewan in 2017 (see survey results below), euteiches, a highly specialized pathogen of legumes. show that Aphanomyces is a common cause of root rots While this pathogen has a number of legume host plants, in pulse crops in the Prairies.
