Brief Project Summary:

Soybean cyst nematodes (SCN) are the most limiting disease of soybeans in the United States and about 10% of Nebraska soybean production fields are infested with SCN. Research has been reported that SCN can reproduce on selected winter weeds. Unknown is whether the SCN can reproduce on these weeds in Nebraska's winter environment.
