Brief Project Summary:

The production of drought tolerant soybean will result in better yield and quality. For market competition, Missouri farmers need to have soybean cultivars with improved drought tolerance and yield stability. With the focus of developing soybean plants with enhanced stress tolerance and seed composition, the overall goal is to generate and characterize number of abiotic stress-related and seed development-related transcription factor conducts.

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.
