The objective of this proposal is to provide partial continuing support for the University of Tennessee Soybean Breeding & Genetics Program in order to develop high yielding varieties and breeding lines, including those with herbicide resistance, added-value, resistance to soybean cyst nematode, stem canker, or foliar diseases. The researchers will continue to develop herbicide resistant as well as conventional soybeans (late MG III, MG IV early, mid, and late, and early MG V). They utilize genetic discoveries and the proven winners that they developed in addition to collaborating with other breeders to build upon each other's successes for soybean improvement. This past year several conventional...
