INTERACTION OF PHYTOPHTHORA SOJAE EFFECTOR AVR1B WITH E3 UBIQUITIN LIGASE GMPUB1 IS REQUIRED FOR RECOGNITION BY SOYBEANS CARRYING PHYTOPHTHORA RESISTANCE RPS1-B AND RPS1-K GENES

Interaction of Phytophthora sojae Effector Avr1b With E3 Ubiquitin Ligase GmPUB1 Is Required for Recognition by Soybeans Carrying Phytophthora Resistance Rps1-b and Rps1-k Genes

Phytophthora sojae is an oomycete that causes stem and root rot disease in soybean.P.sojae delivers many RxLR effector proteins, including Avr1b, into host cells to promote infection.We show here that Avr1b interacts with the soybean U-box protein, GmPUB1-1, in yeast two-hybrid, pull down, and bimolecular fluorescence complementation (BIFC) assays.
