Although it has not been formally reported in Michigan, there have been fields with symptomatic plants of Sudden Death Syndrome (SDS) for some time and the disease incidence appears to be increasing. Neighboring states report an association of SDS with both SCN field presence as well as fields planted no-till which translates to Michigan agronomics. While realizing MGII and III soybean lines with SDS resistance exist, testing has not been done in Michigan. Virulent SDS isolates cannot be brought into Michigan from other states. Since the virulent SDS isolate must be from Michigan, the program is intended to investigate the virulence isolates present in Michigan to allow germplasm...
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.
