This project will develop a new RNA interference technology that enable soybean resistance to SCN. This technology will target multiple genes at the same time and has the potential to eliminate the negative effect of gene silencing on the application of RNAi. This technology therefore will provide soybean a sustainable and efficient way to fight against SCN. Consequently, we expect to generate SCN resistant soybean varieties that will improve yield. More importantly, this technology can be combined with existing SCN resistant traits to eliminate the potential adaptation of SCN to resistance. In addition, this project will lead to a better understanding of mechanisms used by soybean to fight...

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.
