Brief Project Summary:

This study involves developing new information and awareness concerning fungicide resistance to strobilurin (Qo1), the extent of that resistance, the potential threat of that resistance to profitable soybean production, and a determination of the long-term effects of disease resistance to this class of fungicides. Efforts monitor soybean fields for strobilurin (Qo1) resistance in selected diseases, identify mechanisms of resistance, determine potential fitness costs associated with Qo1 resistant soybean pathogens, develop new information and awareness concerning fungicide resistance and the potential threat of that resistance to profitable soybean production and determine the long-term effects of disease resistance to this class of fungicides.

Key Benefactors:
farmers, agronomists, extension agents

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.
