Shoot-tips 15cm long from 15 soybean cultivars and breeding lines were individually immersed in Hoagland's solution in 1 × 14 cm test tubes, and supported by cotton plugs. All leaves were removed leaving about 1 cm of each petiole on the shoot. A 4 mm mycelial plug of Sclerotium rolfsii Sacc., ta...

Evaluation of soybean cultivars for susceptibility to pyrenochaeta leaf blotch
More than 100 pathogens attack soybean, but only a third of them are of economic importance. Yield reduction varies between 10 % and 30 %. Soybean diseases are caused by viruses, bacteria, fungi, and nematodes. Disease management is based on several control principles that should be combined pref...
The influence of soybean (Glycine max) planting date on seasonal epidemics of frogeye leaf spot caused by Cercospora sojina and on grain yield, was evaluated during the 1991 and 1992 cropping seasons. Two susceptible (Samsoy 1 and TGx 849-313D) and one resistant (TGx 996-26E) soybean cultivars we...
