Information And Results
Project Deliverables

4 deliveries
Directly and immediate term,

1) To farmers: new varieties with superior SDS resistance-high yield
2) To seed industry: new germplasm lines for use in breeding programs that will also benefit the farmers

Indirectly and longer term,

3) New sources of resistance to SDS for use as donors
4) Genes identified that will be of importance to use by breeding programs

Final Project Results

Update:
See final report under October 3, 2016

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.
