Greenhouse screening for reaction to SCN (resistance)
Page
Soybean genotypes are evaluated for resistance to soybean cyst nematode (SCN), Heterodera glycines, by growing the plants in infested soil-sand mix for approximately 30 days, after which the numbers of adult SCN females and cysts on the roots is assessed. Alternatively, non-infested soil-sand mix may be infested with an SCN egg suspension.
