Previous soybean sequencing research has identified soybean genes that are expressed by SDS pathogen infection process. These genes are in three classes which seem to be related to soybean defense genes that are suppressed following infection with the SDS pathogen. The goal of the research project is to continue efforts to create novel soybean germplasm with durable SDS resistance for soybean growers.
