Information And Results
Project Deliverables

a. Produce extreme quality variants within a single variety at two locations. These seed samples will then be used to evaluate the interrelationships between compositional components.
b. Initiate the development of large geo-scale models for predicting protein and oil based on soil maps and environmental data
c. Develop novel markers for protein and oil phenotypes through use of mutant populations
d. Develop NIL’s (near inbred lines that are both + and – mutations across several unique mutations and soybean genetic backgrounds

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.
