Host resistance is the most effective and economical means to manage SCN. There are many soybean cultivars with resistance derived from PI 88788 available to Wisconsin growers. The ability of SCN populations to develop on a resistant variety, or virulence, is characterized using the Hg-Type system.
The goal of this project is to preserve the usefulness of the PI 88788 and Peking source of resistance for Wisconsin soybean growers, by preventing a shift towards greater virulence in SCN populations.
Develop information and educational materials about Hg Type and the virulence of SCN populations on resistant soybean cultivars in Wisconsin.
This is a multi-year project conducted...
