Phytophthora root and stem rot caused by Phytophthora sojae, is one of the most damaging diseases of soybean, for which management is principally done by planting resistant cultivars with race specific resistance which are conferred by Rps (Resistance to Phytophthora sojae) genes. The Rps8 locus, identified in the South Korean landrace PI 399073, is located in a 2.23 Mbp region on soybean chromosome 13. In eight cv. Williams (rps8/rps8) × PI 399073 (Rps8/Rps8) populations, this region exhibited strong segregation distortion. In a cross between the South Korean lines PI 399073 (Rps8/Rps8) and PI 408211B (multiple Rps genes) this region segregated in a Mendelian fashion. In this study, microsporogenesis was evaluated to identify meiotic abnormalities that may be associated with the segregation distortion of the Rps8 region. Pollen was collected from greenhouse-grown plants of the parental …
