Soybean cyst nematode (SCN) is a new disease of soybeans in North Dakota that threatens soybean production. Control of SCN is focused on managing SCN egg levels in infested soils and using resistant varieties. To understand disease development and effectively manage the SCN it is necessary to have data on the reproduction of SCN on resistant and susceptible soybean cultivars that are adapted to North Dakota. Understanding yield losses associated with SCN egg levels provides information useful in managing this pathogen and reducing losses.
The research objective of this project is to quantify SCN egg production on susceptible and resistant soybean cultivars under field conditions...
