Objective
To implement a new inoculation technique to assess cultivar response to P. sojae pathotypes based on zoospore infection in a miniature hydroponic system; to exploit molecular markers recently discovered by the research group; to expand analyses of all P. sojaecurrently present to all soybean-producing regions in Canada through the network of extensive collaborators across the country (scientists, breeders, producers, extension) and to keep a precise record of pathotype evolution over the years.
