Information And Results
Project Deliverables

Characterize the high stearic acid trait as achieved with the best available conventional genetics resources.
Define the viability of the high stearic acid trait in terms of any potential yield drag.
Create soybean germplasm and molecular genetic resources for the high stearic/low linolenic trait combination as well as the high stearic trait in a high oleic acid genetic background.

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.
