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.

Since the beginning of the 20th century, these forests ecosystems have been threatened by several factors, including human intervention, climate change, wildfires, pathogens, and pests. Several studies have demonstrated the primary role of the oomycete Phytophthora cinnamomi Ronds in the widespread decline of cork oaks in Portugal, Spain, southern France, and Italy, although other congeneric species have also been occasionally associated. Between 2015 and 2019, independent surveys were undertaken to determine the diversity of Phytophthora species in declining cork oak stands in Sardinia (Italy). Rhizosphere soil samples were collected from 39 declining cork oak stands and baited in the laboratory with oak leaflets. In addition, the occurrence of Phytophthora was assayed using an in-situ baiting technique in rivers and streams located throughout ten of the surveyed oak stands. -

The primer pair CITR1/CITR2, complementing both internal transcribed spacer regions of the riboso- mal RNA genes, gave a 711 bp amplicon with Phytophthora citricola. The Phytophthora cambivora specific primer pair CAMB3/CAMB4, producing a 1105 bp amplicon, as well as the Phytophthora quercina specific primer pair QUERC1/QUERC2, producing a 842 bp amplicon, were derived from randomly amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD)-fragments presented in this paper. All three primer pairs revealed no undesirable cross-reaction with a diverse test collection of isolates including other Phytophthora species, Pythium, Xerocomus, Hebeloma, Russula, and Armillaria. -
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. -

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.
