| Abstract | Microbial populations depend on genetic variation to respond to novel environmental challenges. Plant pathogens are notorious for their ability to overcome pesticides and host resistance genes as a result of genetic changes. We report here that in particular hybrid strains of Phytophthora sojae, an oomycete pathogen of soybean, high frequency mitotic gene conversion rapidly converts heterozygous loci to homozygosity, resulting in heterokaryons containing highly diverse populations of diploid nuclei. In hybrids involving strain P7076, conversion rates of up to 3 × 10−2 per locus per nucleus per generation were observed. In other hybrids, rates were of the order of 5 × 10−5. Independent gene conversion was observed within a selected linkage group including loci as close as 0.7 kb apart and in unlinked markers throughout the genome. Gene conversions continued throughout vegetative growth and were stimulated by further sexual reproduction. At many loci, conversion showed extreme disparity, with one allele always being lost, suggesting that conversion was initiated by allele-specific double-stranded breaks. Pedigree analysis indicated that individual loci undergo multiple independent conversions within the nuclei of a vegetative clone and that conversion may be preceded by a heritable “activation” state. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
