Brief Project Summary:

Resistance to Ohio's primary soybean pathogens is key to the development of high-yielding, adapted varieties to Ohio's challenging production systems. Breeders want more than a line that is resistant to cross with; they also want molecular markers or the genes that are associated with the expression of that resistance. During 2010-2012 we identified several varieties and plant introductions that were also resistant to Fusarium graminearum, Pythium irregulare and Pythium ultimum among the lines that are characterizing resistance to Phytophthora sojae.

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.
