Three major soybean yield-limiting diseases (Soybean Cyst Nematode, Brown Stem Rot and Sudden Death Syndrome) occur in Wisconsin. Understanding how these three diseases interact is critical to improving soybean disease management in Wisconsin. Little is known about how genes for SCN and BSR react to SDS, nor do we understand the spatial distribution of these three diseases in Wisconsin fields. The difficulty with soilborne organisms, especially SCN, BSR and SDS is that once a field is infected, complete removal of the disease organism is difficult. While rotation has been shown to reduce SCN and BSR populations over time, there is no similar data for SDS. This research team believes...
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.
