Abstract
Phosphite inhibits the in vitro and in vivo growth of a number of Oomycetes, of which P. cinnamomi is particularly sensitive. However, P. cinnamomi isolates from the northern jarrah forrest were found to vary significantly in their sensitivity to phosphite in vitro, with a 20 times difference between most and least tolerant isolates. The current study examined two isolates (most sensitive and most tolerant to phosphite) in order to determine the role of phosphite in protecting the roots of resistant and susceptible clonal jarrah from invasion by phosphite tolerant and sensitive P. cinnamomi isolates in the form of reduced lesion development and accumulation of phenolics.
