lmproving soybean resistance to biotic stress will likely lead to increases in yield. To accomplish this it is critical that we increase our understanding of plant immunity. Additionally, understanding how microbial pathogens successfully breach plant immune systems will improve our ability to control diseases caused by microorganisms. Because pathogens have co-evolvedwith their host plants they 'know' the weak links of the plant's immune system that if disabled will result in compromised immunity. ln the plant world our understanding of these topics are at a tipping point and this proposal seeks to exploit this to generate soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr] plants with improved resistance...

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.
