Brief Project Summary:

The soybean cyst nematode (SCN) is the number one yield robbing pest in soybean production. SCN is an important limiting factor of soybean yield in Michigan. For a long time, plant resistance was very effective to control SCN; unfortunately SCN has started adapting and reproducing in resistant varieties because of the continuous use. Even though resistance to the SCN-resistant soybean varieties has been reported, growing SCN resistant varieties is still an effective and affordable way to manage SCN populations.

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.
