摘要： Infection by the clubroot pathogen Plasmodiophora brassicae on resistant and susceptible canola cultivars was investigated at various times following inoculation. Primary infection occurred on more than 90% of root hairs in both cultivars at 7 days after inoculation (dai), and thereafter declined to less than 20% at 14 to 35 dai. The amount of primary infection on the two cultivars was similar at each time point. Secondary infections were rare in both cultivars at 5 and 7 dai but became common after 14 dai. At 14 to 28 dai, the level of secondary infection was greater in the resistant cultivar than in the susceptible one. The in planta expression of 12 selected P. brassicae genes was investigated by reverse-transcription quantitative polymerase chain reaction. All genes were upregulated at 5 or 7 dai in the resistant cultivar. In the susceptible cultivar, the 12 genes could be classified into three groups according to their expression patterns: 2 genes showed an expression peak at 14 dai, 3 showed two expression peaks at 14 and 35 dai, and the others showed an expression peak at 35 dai. Results from this study will be useful in breeding for resistance and in selecting candidate pathogenicity genes for further studies.
