Brief Project Summary:

There is no question that SCN depresses soybean yields and the yield loss is related to SCN population densities. Host plant resistance is the most effective and economical means to manage SCN and there are many soybean varieties on the market with resistance derived from soybean plant introduction PI 88788. This project will determine changes in SCN populations when PI 88788 resistance is used one, two or three times in three consecutive soybean crops, alone or in combination with a susceptible variety of one with "Peking" source of resistance. Experiments will be conducted in the field and in growth chambers to test the effectiveness of the sources of resistance.

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.
