Transcriptional plasticity enables oomycetes to rapidly adapt to environmental challenges including emerging host resistance. For example, the soybean pathogen Phytophthora sojae can overcome resistance conferred by the host resistance gene Rps1b through natural silencing of its corresponding effector gene, Avr1b-1. With the Phytophthora CRISPR/Cas9 genome editing system, it is possible to generate site-specific knock-out (KO) and knock-in (KI) mutants and to investigate the biological functions of target genes. In this study, the Avr
