Soybean rust, caused by the biotrophic pathogen Phakopsora pachyrhizi is a highly destructive disease that occurs in many soybean producing regions throughout the world causing substantial yield losses. Knowledge about P. pachyrhizi virulence is needed to guide development and deployment of soybe...

Virulence diversity of Phakopsora pachyrhizi isolates from east Africa compared to a geographically diverse collection
Soybean rust (SBR), caused by Phakopsora pachyrhizi, has become established in Africa since the first report in Uganda in 1996 (2). The urediniospores, as windborne propagules, have infested new regions of Africa, initiating SBR in many countries, including Ghana and Democratic Republic of the Co...

First report of Phakopsora pachyrhizi causing rust on soybean in Malawi
Soybean rust, caused by Phakopsora pachyrhizi, is an important foliar disease of soybean. Disease severity is dependent on several environmental factors, although the precise nature of most of these factors under field conditions is not known. To help understand the environmental factors that aff...
