This study identifies AATRhg1 as a tonoplast amino acid transporter involved in soybean resistance to soybean cyst nematodes, with specific amino acid and metabolic changes observed upon its silencing.

This study shows that Rhg1 in soybeans reduces Pratylenchus penetrans parasitism, but not soybean cyst nematode, and suggests potential mechanisms involving salicylate responses.

This study investigates the role of AATRhg1 in soybean, showing it affects amino acid homeostasis and betalain accumulation through transporter activity and interactions with other proteins.

This study shows that overexpressing α-SNAPRhg1 enhances rhg1-a mediated resistance to soybean cyst nematode in transgenic soybean lines, but not against highly virulent SCN populations.

The paper identifies susceptibility genes involved in trans-kingdom vitamin B synthesis between a plant-parasitic nematode and its host, revealing a horizontal gene transfer critical for parasitism.
