Abstract
Root exudates from Edranol roots contained higher concentrations of 14 amino acids than roots of Duke 7, G6 and G755. A combination of these amino acids showed the highest degree of zoospore attraction in vitro. Edranol roots attracted more zoospores than the more resistant Duke 7, G6 and G755 roots.
