Brief Project Summary:

Soybean cyst nematode (SCN) and sudden death syndrome (SDS) are two major pathogens that cause yield loss in soybeans. The main management tool has been genetics; however there is a new seed treatment that farmers can purchase. Ilevo seed treatment offers some protection against soybean cyst nematodes and SDS. Since this is a new tool, there is little information available to soybean farmers to determine if this is an economical management tool. The two main genetic sources for SCN resistance genes in the commercial soybean market are PI88788 and Peking. Recently PI88788 has shown weaker resistance to soybean cyst nematode and may not be as strong in resisting nematodes as the new Peking...

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.
