Information And Results
Project Deliverables

~ New germplasms and associated molecular markers for the high oleic trait.
~ Novel high stearic alleles and molecular markers will be identified.
~ Germplasm with high overall oil content and a strong canopy position effect will be identified.
~ High oleic low linolenic breeding lines and or varieties in MG 00 to VII.
~ High Oil lines with good yield and protein content that remains at least 41.5% (dry weight)
~ A high stearic, good yielding Group V germplasm will be released.

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.
