Brief Project Summary:

SCN causes more yield loss than any other soybean pathogen in Illinois. Host resistance and crop rotation are the most efficient methods to manage this pathogen. However, over 90% of resistant varieties contain the same source (PI88788) of resistance. As SCN field populations continue to adapt to our resistant varieties, the amount of losses will continue to increase. In the past project, results indicate that producers in Illinois are having greater difficulty managing SCN. This project is the only avenue to accurately assess the status of SCN populations, and increase awareness in managing more problematic populations.

This project will include a survey of fields across the state...

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.
