Brief Project Summary:

This study will determine soil and seed borne Fusarium spp. and will evaluate the pathogenicity of these Fusarium spp. on soybean varieties commonly grown in Kansas. The project also involves determining the sensitivity and resistance of Fusarium pathogens, comparing these results with commercial seed treatment fungicides, and examining the interactions between seedlings and root pathogens in three-way tests.
