Missouri develops soybean strain resistant to cyst nematode
In Columbia Missouri a yellow seeded soybean line resistant to the soybean cyst nematode has been developed by University of Missouri field crops staff led by Emmett Prwell. The strain, created by J Fy Williams and Arnold Matson, will be used in crosses with commercial soybeans and not released as a stand alone variety. Release to growers is expected in three years as nematode resistant lines replace current susceptible varieties. A federal state quarantine aims to curb the nematode with long crop rotations and restricted movement.
