  • DISCOVERY OF SOYBEAN CYST NEMATODE RESISTANCE GENES BASED ON EPIGENETIC ANALYSIS
    Publication number: 20220033841
    Abstract: The invention relates to genes which may be utilized to induce resistance to soybean cyst nematode (SCN). More specifically the present disclosure provides genes that, when inactivated or overexpressed in a plant, particularly, a soybean plant, can confer upon the plant resistance to SCN. Methods of using these genes to obtain plants, particularly, soybean plants, that are resistant to SCN are also provided.
