Aphanomyces euteiches Drechsler is a serious pathogen of leguminous crops that causes devastating root rot of pea worldwide. Given that A. euteiches is a diploid organism, robust, codominant markers are needed for population genetics studies. We have developed and screened a microsatellite-enriched small-insert genomic library for identification of A. euteiches SSR containing sequences. Fourteen out of the 48 primer pairs designed to amplify SSR, produced unambiguous polymorphic products in our test population of 94 isolates. The number of alleles at each locus ranged from one to four. The identification of new markers would enhance the ability to evaluate the genetic structure of A. euteiches populations, and pathogen evolution.

Aphanomyces root rot (ARR), caused by , is one of the most devastating diseases that affect the production of peas. Several control strategies such as crop rotation, biocontrol, and fungicides have been proposed, but none provides a complete solution. Therefore, the deployment of resistant cultivars is fundamental.

Medicago truncatula Nod Factor Perception (MtNFP) plays a role in both the Rhizobium-Legume (RL) symbiosis and plant immunity, and evidence suggests that the immune-related function of MtNFP is relevant for symbiosis. To better understand these roles of MtNFP, we sought to identify new interacting partners. We screened a yeast-2-hybrid cDNA library from Aphanomyces euteiches infected and noninfected M.

In soilborne diseases, the plant-pathogen interaction begins as soon as the seed germinates and develops into a seedling. , an oomycete, stays dormant in soil and is activated by sensing the host through chemical signals present in the root exudates. The composition of plant exudates may, thus, play an important role during the early phase of infection.

Aphanomyces euteiches causes root rot in pea, leading to significant yield losses. However, the metabolites involved in this pathosystem have not been thoroughly studied. This study aimed to fill this gap and explore mechanisms of bacterial suppression of A.
