Brief Project Summary:

This project will incorporate improved seed protein, low phytate and low trypsin inhibitor traits into high-yielding Asian soybean rust and RR2Y varieties. The investigator has initiated a backcrossing program to incorporate these genes into the most productive, multiple pest resistant breeding lines with 46% or higher protein content. The funding during this period will allow the researcher to select and evaluate lines that best combine the characteristics of the recurrent parent and the improvements contributed by the donor parent of the value-added trait.
