Abstract

Additional tests of 178 cultivars and lines of soybean against soybean cyst nematode are reported. Cultivars are available with some level of resistance to races 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 9, and 14, but in some cases the resistance level is moderate. No cultivar or line (except possibly PI 437654) has resistance to all of the races tested. Thirteen cultivars and lines, however, were resistant or moderately resistant to race 1, 14 to race 2, 87 to race 3, 2 to race 4, 3 to race 5, 42 to race 6, 18 to race 9, and 36 to race 14. Some have resistance to more than one race. Key words: Glycine max, Heterodera glycines, nematode, resistance, soybean, soybean cyst nematode.
