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 15-eg1053cl 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 (B
