Brief Project Summary:

The objective of the project is to work with the MSU soybean breeding program to screen mapping populations for SDS resistance in the greenhouse and to assist with SDS in-field screening at the Agronomy farm and the SDRC and variety performance trial in Decatur. Greenhouse screening for SDS uses the screening method that has been developed and validated. SDS inoculum is produced in the Chilvers laboratory for the inoculation of SDS field screening trials on the Agronomy farm. It is essential to have a robust data set for the identification of SDS resistance QTLs and having field data collected at multiple locations assists with mapping and confirming QTLs. Mapping populations, advanced yield...

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.
