Brief Project Summary:

Soybean vein necrosis has been reported in the U.S. since 2008. The disease causes development of shriveled, deformed seeds with reduced germination percentage and decrease in oil percentage, seed weight, protein content and fiber content. This project investigates the role of host plant resistance in the management of this disease.

Key Benefactors:
farmers, agronomists, extension agents, soybean breeders, seed companies
