Abstract

Six races were identified among 26 single-lesion isolates of Phakopsora pachyrhizi from rust-infected leaves of nine samples of cultivated soybean and one sample of the wild host plant kudzu (Pueraria lobata) collected in Tsukuba and vicinity in Ibaraki, Central Honshu, Japan. Six races were detected on soybean cultivars and four races on kudzu. When two or more isolates obtained from the same samples were examined, the isolates were different races except from two samples. These results indicate that two or more races may be distributed on the same soybean cultivar and that the same races share soybean and kudzu hosts.
