Pythium is the causal agent of pre- and post-emergence damping off in soybean seedlings and can have detrimental effects on stand establishment and yield of soybean. In North Dakota there has never been a study on Pythium species in soybean roots or their importance in disease development. The main goal of this continuing project is to identify the species of Pythium causing seed decay and damping off of soybean in North Dakota.
Knowledge of the species of Pythium causing seed decay and damping off of soybean in North Dakota.
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.
