Brief Project Summary:

Diseases can be a major problem for soybean production in North Dakota, especially in areas with a long history of production. The primary goals of this project are to develop controls for the major soybean diseases in North Dakota and to inform growers about changes in diseases and pathogens that could affect soybean production. The objectives are 1) to screen breeding lines and cultivars for resistance to major soybean pathogens and 2) to monitor soybean-pathogen populations for new, virulent strains. Incorporating disease-resistance genes into soybeans gives growers a tool for disease management and understanding what pathogens or pathogen races are important in North Dakota and will...
