Brief Project Summary:

This study will expand our understanding of the effectiveness of Stamina and Dynasty fungicides in reducing symptom severity, protecting root development and preventing yield losses resulting from infection. The results will help soybean growers in Illinois make better decisions about which seed treatment fungicide to select and use. The establishment of baseline sensitivity levels of Rhizoctonia solani to these fungicides will allow for monitoring pathogen populations and to detect the development of fungicide resistant strains.
