Brief Project Summary:

The results of this study intend to provide a method to rapidly and consistently differentiate glyphosate-resistant and glyphosate-susceptible ryegrass plants so that site-specific weed management strategies can be planned for soybean production systems. Efforts characterize hyperspectral reflectance properties of glyphosate-resistant and glyphosate-susceptible Italian ryegrass plants and then assess the classification accuracy against a known set of glyphosate-resistant and glyphosate-susceptible plants to optimize results.

Information And Results
Final Project Results

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.
