Phytophthora Sojae (P. Sojae), a notorious oomycete pathogen to soybeans, secretes virulence
effectors as major ‘weapons’ to attack the target host organisms. Understanding the biological functions
of virulence effector is the key step to reveal the mechanism of oomycete pathogenicity to hosts and
control the disease. Under the support from NE Soybean Board from 2014 to 2016, we conducted
research on genome-wide identification of all virulence effectors in P. Sojae. Therefore, we will explore
the so-far blank research area of protein interactions between P. Sojae virulence effectors and soybean
proteins with a statistical model trained from existing protein interaction data. As a result,...
