SOYBEAN CYST NEMATODE RESISTANT SOYBEANS AND METHODS OF BREEDING AND IDENTIFYING RESISTANT PLANTS

摘要

A method for introgresssing soybean cyst nematode resistance into elite soybean germplasm is disclosed. The method involves using genetically mapped loci associated with soybean cyst nematode resistance for marker-assisted selection during introgression of soybean cyst nematode resistance into elite soybean germplasm. Also disclosed are: a method for confirming selection for soybean cyst nematode resistance; quantitative trait loci associated with soybean cyst nematode resistance; and soybean lines bred to be resistant to soybean cyst nematode infestation.
