Brief Project Summary:

This research project will develop a rapid, accurate, and cost-effective PCR-based detection and quantification method for soybean cyst, reniform, and root-knot nematodes, the three major nematode pests of soybean. This will speed reporting of nematode infestations so that more timely management decisions can be made, and increase the sensitivity of nematode detection, especially for samples with low numbers of nematodes that are difficult to detect visually.

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.
