  • Sources of aphid resistance in soybean plants
    Patent number: 10253329
    Abstract: The present invention relates to compositions and methods for identifying and using new germplasm providing aphid resistant in soybean plants, particularly for use in breeding soybean plant lines and cultivars representing specific set(s) of germplasm. In particular, aphid resistant soybean plants comprising new sources of germplasm and stacked germplasm/genes conferring enhanced aphid resistance are provided. These enhanced aphid resistant plants find use in breeding soybean plant lines (cultivars) including lines having superior aphid resistance. Further, the inventions relate to providing new aphid resistant germplasm identified by markers associated with plants having decreased damage from aphid feeding, as well as plants having enhanced tolerance to aphid infestation.
    Type: Grant
