A research project is aiming to increase understanding of Olpidium brassicae’s interactions with canola plants as well as with the rest of the soil microbiome, especially the clubroot pathogen. Understanding how the fungus effectively colonizes canola roots or how it interacts with the clubroot pathogen might provide new insights into mechanisms of root infection in canola, which might contribute to advances such as finding new ways to help canola resist soil-borne diseases.
