Fusarium solani root rot is one of the most significant root rot problems in Minnesota. This project will use a technique, developed from previous studies, to screen soybean varieties and germplasm from maturity groups grown in Minnesota for resistance to taproot infections caused by Fusarium solani isolates collected from Minnesota soils. This project will also determine if susceptibility to infection by Fusarium solani is increased by infection with soybean cyst nematodes.
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.
