Brief Project Summary:

There are four objectives to this project: 1) evaluating lines developed in maturity groups III through V in Kansas and throughout the US to identify progeny with superior or unique combinations of traits; 2) transgenic events developed under a previous project will be incorporated into elite lines through backcross breeding or directly transformed into specific cultivars; 3) evaluating genotypes for response to drought and heat tolerance; and 4) continuing to monitor the amount of variation displayed by SCN populations in Kansas, particularly regarding virulence on PI 88788.
