Brief Project Summary:

The soybean breeding project will develop high yielding, multiple pest resistant varieties; special purpose varieties for use in food, feed or industrial products; germplasm with specific disease and insect resistance; and lines with improved oil quality. The researchers will improve selection efficiency in breeding for specific traits. They will also continue to improve charcoal rot and soybean cyst nematode (SCN) and soybean sudden death syndrome (SDS) management recommendations.
