Structural and nucleotide diversity at the Avr6 locus among 31 isolates of Phytophthora sojae reveal distinct haplotypes associated with virulence phenotypes. a Variants in the upstream region of the Phytophthora sojae Avr6 gene. Yellow box represents exon and gray bars, 5′ and 3′ UTR. Asterisks (*) indicate approximate positions of the SNPs and small indel. b Schematic graph of the position of the variants for each isolates, regrouped by haplotypes. Variants in gray background are different from the reference genome (isolate P6497). c Phenotypic response of the outliers (when the phenotype did not match the genotype based on the hypocotyl test) from the hydroponic assay. Responses showed here are representative of all isolates tested. All phenotypic responses of other tested isolates can be found in Additional file 3
