Interpretive Summary:

Technical Abstract: Hypocotyl inoculation is commonly used to determine races or pathotypes of Phytophthora sojae isolates and to identify Rps genes. Differences in reactions for isolates have been reported. This may be due to changes in virulence in the pathogen or to different sources of resistance in a differential. Isolates of P. sojae representing races 1, 3, 4, 7 and 25 from IN and OH were compared on soybean differentials from three separate seed sources. Races 1, 3, 4, 7, and 25 had the expected reaction on all differentials for Rps1b, Rps1c, Rps1k, Rps2, Rps3a, Rps4, Rps5, and Rps7 butt nor for all cultivars used as Rps1a and Rps1d differentials. Differentials L88-8470 for Rps1a and L93-3302 for Rps1d did not have the expected response. Additional races are needed to differentiate reactions on Rpa3b, Rps3c, and Rps6. Utilizing different sources of resistance for Rps alleles may account for some of the differences in reactions of P. sojae isolates.
