Brief Project Summary:

Soybean cyst nematode (SCN) is the most important pathogen of soybeans in the USA. This pathogen has already caused yield losses in this area and will eventually become the dominant soybean disease in North Dakota. SCN has a wide host range and is reported to reproduce on weeds. For effective management of SCN it is important to know which weeds are hosts of SCN.

This project will determine the weed host range of SCN in North Dakota. The information will be used in the development of a comprehensive management plan for SCN.

Information And Results
Final Project Results

Polymeric resins currently being used by Tecton as well as those being developed by NDSU were and are continuing to be mechanically tested and compared for performance as plastics and composites. Strategies for scaling up polymeric resin manufacturing were developed and equipment was built at NDSU to start synthesizing larger quantities over the next year of the project. The high renewable based composites will ultimately be tested and compared on an industrial scale in performance against current industrially produced composites as a major step towards commercialization.

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.
