Brief Project Summary:

Sudden death syndrome of soybean (SDS) and soybean cyst nematode (SCN) are two pest issues that have the potential to cause significant yield loss on an annual basis in Indiana. Despite drought conditions in 2012, SDS was observed in Indiana, and this disease continues to be a perennial problem. SCN also had a more pronounced impact in 2012, and growers need to be aware of both issues since research suggests that the population size and genetic profile of SCN within a field may influence expression of SDS. Damage due to SDS may be more severe in the presence of a particular genetic profile of SCN (formerly known as Race 1, now characterized as HG type 2.) that can cause symptoms on soybean...

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.
