Patent number: 10253329Abstract: 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: GrantFiled: December 6, 2013Date of Patent: April 9, 2019Assignee: Board of Trustees of Michigan State UniversityInventors: Dechun Wang, Carmille Bales-Arcelo, Zhongnan Zhang, Cuihua Gu, Christina D. DiFonzo, Guorong Zhang, Zhenyu Yang, Menghan Liu, Clarice Mensah

Patent number: 9133475Abstract: The present invention relates to compositions and methods for providing and using markers of aphid resistant germplasm, particularly for identifying aphid resistance germplasm in soybean plants. Specifically, the inventions related to providing aphid resistant germplasm identified by markers associated with decreased damage from aphid feeding, as well as enhanced tolerance to aphid infestation of soybean plants. More particularly, the invention relates to compositions and methods for using genetic markers in breeding methods for producing plants with increased resistance to aphid damage and tolerance, while retaining and acquiring desired agronomic traits. Additionally, markers were developed for fine mapping of aphid resistance genes including allele specific contributions to plants for breeding soybean plants with increased aphid resistance.Type: GrantFiled: August 6, 2012Date of Patent: September 15, 2015Assignee: Board of Trustees of Michigan State UniversityInventors: Dechun Wang, Carmille Bales, Jiazheng Yuan, Zhongnan Zhang
