Brief Project Summary:

The most common nematode pest of field crops in the North Central Region is the root lesion nematode, Pratylenchus spp. Root knot nematodes can be very damaging to soybean and are considered to be more damaging than soybean cyst nematode in some production areas of Brazil. Almost every field in Wisconsin is infested with root lesion nematodes and in studies we have found 8% of the soil samples negative for soybean cyst nematodes which were shown to have high populations of root lesion nematodes. This project will continue to study the importance of the root lesion nematode and to develop management recommendations for minimizing its damage to soybean production.

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.
