Information And Results

Project Deliverables

1) Continue to screen and identify genes for resistance using VIGS.
2) Continue to inoculate plants to assess their functionality.
3) Transfer promising genes identified from our VIGS screening into soybean using Agrobacterium-mediated transformation, and assessing their functionality and disease/pest resistance responses in knockouts and overexpression lines.

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.
