Brief Project Summary:

The objective of this project is to conduct a random and unbiased soybean cyst nematode survey in Indiana to evaluate the current usefulness of PI 88788 and other sources of SCN resistance for managing soybean cyst nematode populations. Some of the questions the project will address are: 1) Whether the extent of Indiana's soybean cyst nematode infestation is comparable to that of nearby states; and 2) Whether PI 88788 is still useful in Indiana soybean fields.

The results of the project will be communicated to soybean growers via press releases, website, newsletters and grower meetings. The ultimate goal of the effort is to document the presence and possible resistance of the soybean...
