Brief Project Summary:

Researchers will develop and optimize a molecular quantification system for screening for soybean resistance to SCN. The researchers will be measuring the amount of SCN DNA within the infected soybean roots which is directly related to performance in the field. The new concept of screening soybean lines may have major advantages over existing methods.

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.
