Brief Project Summary:

Soybean cyst nematode (SCN) is a destructive pathogen of soybean. Use of SCN-resistant cultivars is the main method to manage the nematode. The SCN resistance in most current commercial cultivars is from the germplasm line PI 88788, and only a few from Peking. Use of resistant cultivars will place a selection pressure on the nematode and result in SCN populations that can eventually overcome the resistance. Most of SCN populations in MN have changed to HG Type 2- (race 1) that can overcome resistance from PI 88788. For effective long-term SCN management, an integrated program with multiple strategies is needed, and diversified SCN-resistant genes in soybean cultivars are essential....

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.
