SummaryIncreasing atmospheric CO2levels have a variety of effects that can influence plant responses to microbial pathogens. However, these responses are varied, and it is challenging to predict how elevated CO2(eCO2) will affect a particular plant-pathogen interaction. We investigated howeCO2may influence disease development and responses to diverse pathogens in the major oilseed crop, soybean (Glycine max[L.] Merr.).Soybeans grown in ambient CO2(aCO2, 419 parts per million (ppm)) or ineCO2(550 ppm) were challenged with bacterial, viral, fungal, and oomycete pathogens, and disease, pathogen growth, gene expression and molecular plant defense responses were quantified.IneCO2, plants were less susceptible toPseudomonas syringaepv.glycinea(Psg) but more susceptible to bean pod mottle virus, soybean mosaic virus, andFusarium virguliforme. Susceptibility toPythium sylvaticumwas unchanged, although a greater loss in biomass occurred ineCO2. Reduced susceptibility toPsgwas associated with enhanced defense responses. Increased susceptibility to the viruses was associated with reduced expression of antiviral defenses.This work provides a foundation for understanding of how futureeCO2levels may impact molecular responses to pathogen challenge in soybean and demonstrates that agents infecting both shoots and roots are of potential concern in future climatic conditions.
