The goal of this project involves identifying and isolating genes, or germplasm, from cultivated and wild soybean that can be used to improve yield, seed quality, pest resistance and energy, nutrient and water use efficiency in soybean plants. The project provides for innovative approaches to solve practical problems facing soybean producers in South Dakota.
Two high-yield and good quality lines were found to be good candidates for aquafeed use, if soybean meal were to replace fishmeal: SD06-611 and SD03-2154.
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.
