Brief Project Summary:

The goal of this project is to utilize molecular approaches to potentially enhance soybean resistance to SCN. The ultimate strategy is to incorporate genes for SCN resistance into favorable cultivars. For that reason, this research is needed to provide some basic information about molecular events that occur during the soybean response to this economically important pathogen. This study has the potential to devise some practical solutions to resisting this disease.

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.
