Information And Results
Project Deliverables

1. Identify the proteins (effectors) that RKN and reniform nematodes secrete into plant cells to form feeding sites.
2. Engineer soybean plants to disrupt the functions of essential nematode parasitism genes.

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.
