Brief Project Summary:

The goal of the research is to characterize the frequency of Fusarium species from soybean roots and soil, determine how these Iowa isolates are impacting soybean yield, and to improve management of SDS and the rest of the Fusarium complex through agronomic practices, soybean cyst nematode (SCN) management, and resistance to Fusarium infection of roots.

The research team will:
~ Characterize the frequency of Fusarium species associated with soybean roots in Iowa, the occurrence of SDS foliar symptoms, and the occurrence of Fusarium virguliforme in soils from Iowa soybean field.

~ Determine the aggressiveness of predominant Fusarium species towards soybean.

~ Estimate potential...

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.
