Brief Project Summary:

Host resistance is the most effective and economic means to manage SCN. There are many soybean cultivars with resistance derived from PI 88788 available to the Wisconsin grower. The ability of SCN populations to develop on a resistant variety, or virulence, is characterized using the Hg-Type system.

The goal of this project is to preserve the usefulness of the PI 88788 and Peking source of resistance for Wisconsin growers by preventing SCN population shifts toward greater virulence.

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.
