Soybean Diseases often limit soybean production and estimates of losses range from 10-15% annually. As new lines develop from either wide-hybridization or from intra-specific crosses, there is a need to evaluate this new material for disease resistance. The objective for this project is to evaluate Glycine tomentella x soybean lines for resistance to several diseases including soybean rust; and to evaluate new and old cultivars in the "era" study for disease resistance.
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.
