This project is geared to evaluation of commonly grown, commercially available SCN-resistant soybean varieties. The varieties will be evaluated in field plots located at numerous field sites across Minnesota and in the greenhouse. The evaluation will include yield performance and a Reproductive Index (RI) at SCN infested field sites, as well as, a Female Index (FI) in the greenhouse. The evaluations will be done with various HG type SCN populations. This information will be critical to the future effective management of Soybean Cyst Nematode through the use of SCN resistant soybean varieties.
The United Soybean Research Retention policy will display final reports with the project once completed but working files will be purged after three years. And financial information after seven years. All pertinent information is in the final report or if you want more information, please contact the project lead at your state soybean organization or principal investigator listed on the project.
