Soybean breeding lines and reported sources of nematode resistance were evaluated in repeated greenhouse tests for resistance to North Carolina populations of the soybean cyst nematode Heterodera glycines, reniform nematode Rotylenchulus reniformis, and the root-knot nematode species Meloidogyne incognita, M. arenaria, and M. arenaria. Lines from the soybean breeding program in Missouri that ha...

Environmental risk assessment is required for genetically modified (GM) crops before their import into Japan. Annual roadside monitoring along transportation routes from ports to processing facilities for GM soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.) have been requested as a condition of import only approval because of lack of information on the likelihood of persistence of imported GM soybean for food, ...

Since its introduction into the United States in the past 10 yr, soybean aphid, Aphis glycines Matsumura (Hemiptera: Aphididae), has been a damaging pest to soybean, Glycine max (L.) Merrill. During 2008 and 2009, fields in central and north central Iowa experienced pockets of high soybean aphid populations. Electroantennograms have shown that soybean aphid alatae are capable of detecting host ...

Short-term greenhouse studies with soybean (Glycine max cv. Bragg) were used to examine interactions between the soybean cyst nematode (Heterodera glycines) and two other common pests of soybean, the stem canker fungus (Diaporthe phaseolorum var. caulivora) and the soybean looper (Pseudoplusia includens), a lepidopterous defoliator. Numbers of cyst nematode juveniles in roots and numbers of cys...

Soybean Dwarf Virus (SbDV) is an important plant pathogen, causing economic losses in soybean. In North America, indigenous strains of SbDV mainly infect clover, with occasional outbreaks in soybean. To evaluate the risk of a US clover strain of SbDV adapting to other plant hosts, the clover isolate SbDV-MD6 was serially transmitted to pea and soybean by aphid vectors. Sequence analysis of SbDV...

The present invention relates to a soybean-based adhesive resin including a soybean flour and a cross-linking agent. The cross-linking agent is reacted with the functional groups in the soybean flour to form an adhesive resin. The present invention also relates to a method of making a soybeanbased adhesive resin. This method involves providing an aqueous solution of soybean flour and adding a c...

Membrane fractions from seedlings of four soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] lines were examined by radioimmunoassay and hemagglutination assay for the 120,000 dalton soybean lectin. Two of the lines (Sooty and T-102) are genotypically lele and lack buffer-soluble soybean lectin; the remaining two lines (Beeson and Harosoy 63) are Le and produce seeds that contain the lectin (Su et al. 1980 Bioch...

Title of thesis: PHYSIOLOGICAL AND MOLECULAR STUDIES OF ETHYLENE EFFECTS ON SOYBEAN ROOT INFECTION BY SOYBEAN CYST NEMATODES Ping Xue, Master of Science, 2007 Directed By: Dr. Theophanes Solomos, Department of Plant Science and Landscape Architecture Soybean cyst nematode (SCN), Heterodera glycines, is one of the most devastating pests of soybean in the world. Several earlier reports demonstrat...

The present study was conducted in Karimnagar purposively selected district of Telangana to identify the constraints perceived by farmers grain and seed production hybrid open pollinated varities paddy. From this three Mandals i.e Vinavanka mandal, Manakondur mandal Shankarpatnam were randomly among growing mandals for collecting primary data. each one village as a sample Elbaka (Vinavanka mand...

in order to evaluate the yield and advantage of two- and three-species intercropping of sunflower with corn and soybean, an experiment was conducted at the research farm of faculty of agriculture of tabriz university in tabriz, iran 2011. the experiment was arranged based on randomized completely block design with 6 treatments and three replications. treatments were included the pure stand of s...
