The soybean cyst nematode is a pathogen that is prevalent in the midwest and can reduce soybean yields. The cultivar IA3005, developed in Iowa, has been tested in Indiana and is being released in Indiana and other Midwestern states. This variety combines high yield potential with resistance to the soybean cyst nematode. IA3005 will protect soybean producers against losses due to the soybean cyst nematode. The information is this bulletin will be useful to extension personnel and soybean producers, informing them about the characteristics of this new variety. Technical Abstract: Profitable soybean production is dependent upon high yielding, pest resistant cultivars. The soybean cyst nematode is a pathogen that is prevalent in the midwest and can reduce soybean yields. The cultivar IA3005, developed in Iowa, has been tested in Indiana and is being released in Indiana and other Midwestern states. This cultivar combines high yield potential with resistance to the soybean cyst nematode. IA3005 will be beneficial to soybean producers who have problems with the soybean cyst nematode in their production fields. |
