Abstract
Clubroot, caused by Plasmodiophora brassicae, is a significant disease affecting brassica crops worldwide and poses a threat to canola (Brassica napus) production in western Canada. Management of this disease heavily relies on the use of resistant cultivars, but resistance erosion is a serious concern due to the highly diverse pathogen populations. Understanding resistance mechanisms may aid in better deployment/rotation of clubroot resistance (CR) genes and improve resistance resilience. In this study, we conducted a comparative analysis using resistant canola varieties carrying either a single (Rcr1) or double CR genes (Rcr1+Crr1<sup>rutb</sup>) to decipher the resistance modes associated with these genes. Cell wall (CW) biopolymeric compounds in different root layers were mapped and quantified using Fourier-transform mid-infrared microspectroscopy for changes in CW elements associated with clubroot resistance. Transmission electron and confocal microscopy were used to assess root infection details and relative transcript abundance was analyzed to determine the activation of the lignin-related pathway in relation to resistance. Neither resistant variety affected the primary infection of root hairs/epidermal cells compared to the susceptible “Westar”, but both exhibited strong inhibition of cortical infection, effectively ‘trapping’ the pathogen in the exodermis. The most prominent change observed was increased lignin accumulation associated with resistance. In Westar, the pathogen was able to degrade CW lignin, facilitating access to the root cortex by secondary plasmodia of P. brassicae. In contrast, resistant varieties showed clear lignin accumulation around the penetration site on the exodermis, accompanied by elevated expression of genes involved in the phenylpropanoid pathway. These results suggest that induced lignin accumulation plays a role in clubroot resistance mediated by the CR genes Rcr1 and Crr1<sup>rutb</sup> in canola, providing cellular and structural evidence that supports the data from earlier transcriptomic studies.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
