The soybean GmSNAP18 gene underlies two types of resistance to soybean cyst nematode

Peking-type and PI 88788-type soybeans are both used as sources of resistance against soybean cyst nematode. Here the authors show that in contrast to PI 88788-type resistance, where GmSNAP18 acts in combination with two neighbouring genes, in Peking-type resistance GmSNAP18 acts with GmSHMT08 to confer resistance.
