Characterization of aapP and nopP genes related to the biological nitrogen fixation efficiency with soybean in contrasting strains of Bradyrhizobium japonicum
Authors: J.G. Perin, M.B.D. Bertéli, J.S. do Valle, G.A. Linde, L.D. Paccola-Meirelles, N.B. Colauto and F.G. Barcellos
Soybean (Glycine max) is considered one of the most economically important agricultural crops in Brazil. Due to the high protein content of its grains, this crop demands a greater amount of nitrogen (N) for production. In general, for soybean, nitrogen fertilization costs through chemical fertilizers are considered high. Howev.. Read More»

Resistance of soybean genotypes to Sclerotinia sclerotiorum isolates in different incubation environments
Authors: L.H.S. Castro, A.A. Figueiró, A.P.O. Nogueira, S.J. Clough and F.C. Juliatti
Sclerotinia sclerotiorum is an important soybean pathogen. The objectives of this study were to evaluate levels of resistance of soybean genotypes to the fungus, and to determine the effects of different incubation environments on host resistance and pathogen aggressiveness. Two experiments were conducted using 103 genotypes f.. Read More»

Molecular characterization and functional analysis of the Nep1-like protein-encoding gene from Phytophthora capsici
Authors: B.Z. Feng and P.Q. Li
Phytophthora capsici is an aggressive plant pathogen that affects solanaceous and cucurbitaceous hosts. Nep1-like proteins (NLPs) are a group of effectors found particularly in oomycetes and considered important virulence factors. We identified an NLP gene (phcnlp1) from the highly virulent P. capsici strain Phyc12 that had an encoded polypeptide of 476-a.. Read More»
