The objectives of this work were to identify parents resistant to Asian soybean rust using diallel crosses, obtain information on the genetic control of soybean resistance to the pathogen and verify whether the combining ability estimates interact with the environment (year or time of assessment). The F1 generation was obtained in a greenhouse from crosses between five contrasting parents for the trait resistance to soybean rust, in a complete diallel without reciprocals. Two rust-severity assessments were carried out on individual soybean plants of 25 treatments (parents and F2 and F3 populations) in 2006/2007 and 2007/2008, in an experimental field at Embrapa Soja, Londrina, PR, Brazil. Additive effects predominated in the genetic control of soybean resistance to Asian rust, and the interaction of the segregant populations with the environment, although significant, did not alter the genetic parameter's general combining ability (GCA) and specific combining ability estimates, indicating that estimates obtained in one year and one assessment can be extrapolated to others. BR01-18437 inbred line is resistant to Asian rust and showed high GCA effects. This line should be used as parent if the objective is the resistance to Phakopsora pachyrhizi.

Silicon (Si) is recognized for its prophylactic role in alleviating diseases when absorbed by plants and has been proposed as a possible solution against soybean rust, caused by Phakopsora pachyrhizi. However, little is known about its potential effects on soybean (Glycine max) because the plant's ability to absorb Si is poorly defined. In this work, our objectives were to evaluate and quantify the absorption of Si in leaves of different soybean cultivars and to determine if such absorption was able to enhance resistance to soybean rust. In a first set of experiments with cv. Williams 82, hydroponic plants were supplied or not with Si and inoculated with urediniospores of P. pachyrhizi. Chemical analyses revealed no significant differences in the plants' Si content regardless of the treatment, which translated into no effect on rust incidence. However, in a second set of experiments with different cultivars, plants of Korean cultivar Hikmok sorip absorbed nearly four times more Si than those of Williams 82. At the same time, plants from this cultivar exhibited a near absence of disease symptoms when supplied with Si. This resistance appeared to be the result of hypersensitive (HR) reactions that were triggered when plants were fed with Si. These results support the concept that a plant's innate ability to absorb Si will dictate the benefits conferred by a treatment with Si and provide evidence that Si can protect soybean plants against soybean rust through mediated resistance.

Dispersal of urediniospores by wind is the primary means of spread for Phakopsora pachyrhizi, the cause of soybean rust. Our research focused on the short-distance movement of urediniospores from within the soybean canopy and up to 61 m from field-grown rust-infected soybean plants. Environmental variables were used to develop and compare models including the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator regression, zero-inflated Poisson/regular Poisson regression, random forest, and neural network to describe deposition of urediniospores collected in passive and active traps. All four models identified distance of trap from source, humidity, temperature, wind direction, and wind speed as the five most important variables influencing short-distance movement of urediniospores. The random forest model provided the best predictions, explaining 76.1 and 86.8% of the total variation in the passive- and active-trap datasets, respectively. The prediction accuracy based on the correlation coefficient (r) between predicted values and the true values were 0.83 (P < 0.0001) and 0.94 (P < 0.0001) for the passive and active trap datasets, respectively. Overall, multiple machine learning techniques identified the most important variables to make the most accurate predictions of movement of P. pachyrhizi urediniospores short-distance.

This review seeks to expand the knowledge about the epidemiology of Asian sybean rust in the state of Mato Grosso and contribute to ensuring the economic sustainability of soybean crop. It is discussed the Phakopsora pachyrhizi potential of dispersal from Asia to South America and finally to Mato Grosso state. The origin of the Asian soybean rust inoculum within Mato Grosso is addressed by the survival in volunteer and soybean weed plants (Pitelli, 2015) in other crops such as cotton. Data on the adverse environmental effect on the soybean plants survival are shown mainly the water deficit from June to August. Reports on the effect air temperature and mainly solar radiation on the mortality of airborne spores during their anemophilous spread on sunny days are also discussed. This increase of knowledge aims to make the soybean-free period more efficient by the knowledge on the soybean plants survival and on the fungus viability in the month of August. Due to the proximity of soybean farms, during the soybean-free period, in other states (Tocantins, Goi&aacute;s, Rond&ocirc;nia, etc.) and in other neighbor countries we discuss the likelihood that inoculum in the state may also originate in out-of-state crops during the Mato Grosso soybean-free period.

ABSTRACT The evolution of the reduction in Asian soybean rust (caused by Phakopsora pachyrhizi) control by site-specific fungicides has been reported season after season. In a field experiment, the effect of prothioconazole solo and added to multisite mancozeb was evaluated for rust control. Treatments were evaluated in a factorial design of four prothioconazole doses and three mancozeb doses. In a set of treatments, three applications were performed in one soybean cycle and four applications in another one. The first applications were performed at GS V8, 11 days before rust detection, with 2.56% leaflet incidence, while the other applications were at 12 to 14-day interval. Rust severity was quantified, control was calculated in relation to the unsprayed treatment, and soybean grain yield was estimated as kg/ha. Fifty-one to 61% control was obtained with three sprayings and 68% to 70% control with four sprayings of prothioconazole alone. Over 80% control was obtained with at least 0.3 L/ha prothioconazole + 2.0 kg/ha mancozeb, corresponding to 75 g a.i./ha prothioconazole + 1500 g a.i./ha mancozeb. Reduction in P. pachyrhizi control by the use of the site-specific fungicide alone was confirmed, while the addition of mancozeb can recover the efficacy of the site-specific fungicide.

This work aimed to analyze the effect of the variation of the proportions of calcium in relation to the contentes of magnesium and potassium in the cationic capacity of change (CCC) of the soil, seeking to propitiate the  appropriate balance of bases, so that the soybean plants presented good nutritional state and had conditions of resisting to the attack of Phakopsora pachyrhizi Syd. & P. Syd. The experiment was driven in randomized blocks with eight replications and the treatments consisted of doses of Ca:Mg:K in relation to CCC of the soil being:1) without correction of the bases (original soil with 3,8%:6,6%:2,4%); 2) 35:15:5; 3) 45:15:5; 4) 55:15:5; 5) 65:15:5; 6) 75:15:5. The soybean cultivar used in the experiment was BRS 184, sowed in mud vases containing dystrophic Red Latosol (Oxisol) as substrate. The inoculation was realized in the fenologic stadium V4. The disease severity was determined through visual notes considering the percentage foliate area with visible symptoms of the disease, being calculated the Area Under Disease Progress Curve (AUDPC). The data were submitted to the variance analysis (p<0.05) and fitting to regression models. The balance among the nutrientes was analyzed being calculated the index DRIS. The contents of nutrients, the matter dry indexes (MDI) and nutritional balance index (NBI) were inserted in the program ChecarDris for obtaining of the index DRIS. The results appeared that the percentages of 55% of calcium, 15% of magnesium and 5% of potassium, increase larger nutritional balance in the soybean providing to smallest area under disease progress curve (AUDPC), reduction in the severity of the rust (%), besides increase the largest productivity.

Abstract. In soybeans, the leaves of the upper canopy often act as a shield against fungicide penetration, preventing pesticide deposition on target. Fungicide applications to control Asian soybean rust (ASR) are especially difficult because the infection usually starts on the lower canopy. In this study, soybean plants of an early indeterminate cultivar and a determinate cultivar were sprayed with the fungicide azoxystrobin + benzovindiflupyr at six different times of the day with or without the addition of a curtain of chains on the spray boom, which acted as a canopy opener. The number of uredia of cm-2 and grain yield were measured to evaluate application efficacy. We found that the use of the curtain of chains reduced ASR control on the upper canopy for the indeterminate cultivar; however, less of a negative effect was observed for the determinate cultivar. The curtain of chains improved ASR control on the lower and middle canopies at more hours of the day for the determinate cultivar. For both cultivars, the curtain of chains increased ASR control at 6:00, 9:00, and 18:00 h on the lower canopy. Grain yield was also higher with the curtain of chains at 6:00 and 9:00 h for the determinate cultivar. Our results showed that using the curtain of chains could improve fungicide droplet deposition on the lower canopy, leading to greater ASR control and possibly increasing yield. However, it is important to consider the plant architecture and hour of application to maximize the benefit of the curtain of chains.

Phakopsora pachyrhizi Syd. & P. Syd., the cause of soybean rust, was first observed in the continental United States in November 2004 (2). During the growing season of 2005, P. pachyrhizi was confirmed on soybean (Glycine max) and/or kudzu (Pueraria montana) in nine states in the southern United States. It is known that P. pachyrhizi has a much larger host range within the Fabaceae family. On 29 September 2005 in Quincy, FL, 45 entries of mostly large-seeded legumes were planted next to soybeans that were infected with P. pachyrhizi. Several seeds of each entry were planted on one hill. Soybean plants growing adjacent to these potential hosts had 15 to 25% of the leaf area affected, 95% incidence, and 73% defoliation on 16 November. On 7 December 2005, all the plants of Phaseolus coccineus L. (scarlet runner bean, PI311827), Phaseolus lunatus L. (lima bean, PI583558), and two Phaseolus vulgaris L. (kidney bean) cvs. Red Hawk and California Early Light Red Kidney (CELRK) were found to have leaves with suspected rust lesions. These plants were at physiological maturity but had not senesced. None of the hosts had been inoculated other than from spores produced by the adjacent rust-infected soybean plants or from unknown locations. On the basis of microscopic examination, suspected infected leaves from plants of the Phaseolus spp. had rust pustules characteristic of P. pachyrhizi uredinia. Uredinia were counted within a randomly selected 2-cm2 area of one leaf of each sample. The mean and range of uredinia per lesion for Phaseolus coccineus was 29 uredinia with a range of 0 to 3 uredinia per lesion, Phaseolus lunatus had 2 uredinia with 0 to 1 uredinium per lesion, Phaseolus vulgaris cv. Red Hawk had 22 uredinia with 0 to 5 uredinia per lesion, and Phaseolus vulgaris cv. CELRK had 43 uredinia with 0 to 4 uredinia per lesion. Polymerase chain reactions using two sets of primers (Ppa1/Ppa2 and Pme1/Pme2) were performed on DNA extracted from leaves of the three species with sporulating rust pustules (1). The results of these tests and further tests conducted by the USDA/APHIS confirmed that P. pachyrhizi was the causal organism for the observed rust. References: (1) P. F. Harmon et al.

In on-farm trials, the foliolar severity of Asian soybean rust was evaluated in 44 areas, in three regions of Mato Grosso sown in December (2019) and February (2020). Several susceptible cultivars were used in different crop systems; insect pests and weeds were controlled with different management systems by the farmers. Forty soybean leaflets from four plots replications, demarcated at random in each field were taken. In laboratory foliolar severity was appraised. For rust control in the trials conducted in February, fungicides with efficiency greater than 60% were used consisting of DMIs, QoIs and SDHIs in double or triple mixtures, always adding multisites (chlorothalonil, mancozeb, copper oxychloride). The severity was greater in the fields sown in December (4.84% than in February 0.68%). The number of fungicides spraying/ha in December was 6.4 and February 4.6. It is discussed that through the use of multisites fungicides, the mutation potential in Phakopsora pachyrhizi is reduced and that the spores from areas cultivated in February, probably due to unfavorable environment, do not survive during the soybean free-period. Our results indicate that the sowing period can be changed from the end of December to February, since multisites fungicides are always used.

ABSTRACTBackgroundPhakopsora pachyrhizi is a biotrophic fungal pathogen responsible for the Asian soybean rust disease causing important yield losses in tropical and subtropical soybean-producing countries. P. pachyrhizi triggers important transcriptional changes in soybean plants during infection, with several hundreds of genes being either up- or downregulated.ResultsBased on published transcriptomic data, we identified a predicted chitinase gene, referred to as GmCHIT1, that was upregulated in the first hours of infection. We first confirmed this early induction and showed that this gene was expressed as early as 8 hours after P. pachyrhizi inoculation. To investigate the promoter of GmCHIT1, transgenic soybean plants expressing the green fluorescence protein (GFP) under the control of the GmCHIT1 promoter were generated. Following inoculation of these transgenic plants with P. pachyrhizi, GFP fluorescence was detected in a limited area located around appressoria, the fungal penetration structures. Fluorescence was also observed after mechanical wounding whereas no variation in fluorescence of pGmCHIT1:GFP transgenic plants was detected after a treatment with an ethylene precursor or a methyl jasmonate analogue.ConclusionWe identified a soybean chitinase promoter exhibiting an early induction by P. pachyrhizi located in the first infected soybean leaf cells. Our results on the induction of GmCHIT1 promoter by P. pachyrhizi contribute to the identification of a new pathogen inducible promoter in soybean and beyond to the development of a strategy for the Asian soybean rust disease control using biotechnological approaches.
