Data were collected 2006 through 2008 from 527 soil samples to determine the current effectiveness of PI 88788 and other sources of Heterodera glycines resistance in three geographically separated areas of soybean production: Tennessee and Indiana/Illinois, USA, and Ontario, Canada. In Tennessee where PI 88788 source of resistance has been used since 1978, 93% of field populations reproduced on PI 88788 (≥10% of susceptible cultivar), and no HG Type 0 populations were found. In Indiana and Illinois, where resistance was used since the mid-1980s, from 56 to 88% of the populations reproduced on PI 88788 (≥10%). PI 548402 (Peking), PI 90763, and PI 437654 had low reproduction (≤10%) unlike Tennessee where 78% of the populations reproduced on PI 548402 (≥10%) and 93% reproduced on PI 90763 (≥10%). In Ontario, where cultivars with PI 88788 resistance were used after 1989, PI 88788 in 73% of the field populations had ≤10% reproduction. But 15% of Ontario populations reproduced on PI 548402 (≥10%) and 6% reproduced on PI 90763 (≥10%), two sources of resistance not generally present in commercial cultivars grown in Ontario.

The soybean cyst nematode (SCN), Heterodera glycines, is the most important yield-limiting pathogen of soybean in the United States. In South Dakota, SCN has been found in 29 counties, as of 2016, and continues to spread. Determining the virulence phenotypes (HG types) of the SCN populations can reveal the diversity of the SCN populations and the sources of resistance that would be most effective for SCN management. To determine the HG types prevalent in South Dakota, 250 soil samples were collected from at least three arbitrarily selected fields in each of the 28 counties with fields previously found to be infested with SCN. SCN was detected in 82 fields (33%), and combined egg and juvenile counts ranged from 200 to 65,200 per 100 cm3 of soil. Eggs and juveniles were extracted from each soil sample and were used to infest seven SCN HG type test indicator soybean lines and ‘Williams 82’ as the susceptible check. A female index (FI) was calculated based on the number of females found on each indicator line relative to those on the susceptible check. A FI equal to or greater than 10% in any line was assigned as that HG type. Out of 73 SCN populations for which HG type tests were done, 63% had FI ≥10% on PI 548316 (indicator line #7), 25% on PI 88788 (#2), 19% on PI 209332 (#5), 7% on PI 548402 (#1), 4% on PI 90736 (#3), and 4% on PI 89722 (#6). None of the SCN populations had FI ≥10% on PI 437654 (indicator line #4). The most prevalent HG types were 0, 2.5.7, and 7. These accounted for 81% of all the HG types determined for the samples tested. HG types with ≥10% reproduction on indicator lines PI 88788, PI 209332, and PI 548317 were most prevalent in the soil samples tested, suggesting that the use of these sources of resistance for developing SCN resistant cultivars should be avoided. For sustainable SCN management, use of resistant cultivars should be rotated with nonhost crops and cultivars with different sources of resistance.

Soybean cultivars with different sources of resistance to Heterodera glycines were grown at three locations initially infested with races 2, 3, and 6 in order to investigate H. glycines race shift in field populations. Each spring and fall, soil samples were taken from each plot and race tests were conducted to evaluate effects of cultivar and time of sampling. Field experiments were paired field plots rotated annually with corn since 1991. Cultivars included at the northern and central Missouri sites were Williams 82 (susceptible to H. glycines), Linford (PI 88788 source of resistance), MFA 9043 (Peking) replaced by Morsoy 9345 (Peking and PI 88788) from 1995 to 1997, and Jackson II (Peking + PI 88788) replaced by Asgrow 3431 (Peking and PI 88788) in 1996-97. Cultivars at the southern Missouri site were Essex or Hutcheson (susceptible to H. glycines), Forrest (Peking), Hartwig (PI 437654), and Rhodes (PI 88788 + Peking). In 1995, race tests were performed at four temperature regimes to determine temperature effects on race designations. Race shifts were not predictable based on the source of resistance of the soybean cultivar planted. Variability in female numbers on Lee 74 among tests caused changes in female indices (FI). Furthermore, race designations were influenced by the time of sampling and temperature at which the race tests were conducted. The variability of H. glycines populations in both field and greenhouse situations diminishes the value of race test results when making cultivar recommendations.

The soybean cyst nematode, Heterodera glycines, is a serious economic threat to soybean producers in Missouri. Periodic monitoring for the presence, population densities, and virulence phenotypes of H. glycines is essential for determining crop losses and devising management strategies implementing the use of resistant cultivars. A survey using area-frame sampling was conducted to determine the distribution and virulence phenotypes of H. glycines in Missouri during 2005. Two samples from each of 125 fields representing eight geographical regions of Missouri were collected; 243 samples were processed for extraction of cysts and eggs. In all, 49% of samples had detectable cyst nematode populations, which ranged from 138 to 85,250 eggs per 250 cm3 of soil. Race and H. glycines type tests were conducted on populations from 45 samples. Nearly 80% of the populations that were tested, irrespective of the region, were virulent on the indicator line plant introduction (PI) 88788, which is the source of resistance for most H. glycines-resistant cultivars. More than 70% of populations could reproduce on the indicator lines PI 88788, PI 209332, and PI 548316 (Cloud), indicating that soybean cultivars with resistance derived from these sources need to be carefully monitored and used only in rotation with nonhost crops and soybean cultivars with resistance from other sources. Approximately one-third of the populations, primarily in the southern regions of Missouri, could reproduce on PI 548402 (Peking), another common source of resistance. Fewer than 10% of the populations could reproduce on PI 90763, PI 437654, PI 89772, or PI 438489B, suggesting that these sources of resistance should be used in soybean breeding programs to develop H. glycines-resistant soybean cultivars.

Jilin is the dominant soybean production province in China. Soybean cyst nematode [Heterodera glycines] (SCN) is one of the most important yield-limiting factors in soybean production. Information about the distribution and virulence phenotypes of SCN in soybean fields are essential for optimizing varieties choice in the region. The distribution and virulence phenotypes of SCN in 141 soil samples from 38 cites (cities, counties and towns) across Jilin province were investigated. One hundred and four (73.76%) of the samples from all 38 cities (counties, towns) tested positive for SCN and SCN population densities were more than 5 cysts/100 mL soil in 53 samples from 27 cities (counties, towns). In those 53 samples, we identified 7 races and 12 Heterodera glycines (HG) types, with Race 3 and HG Type 7 being the most dominant genotypes. Of all the genotypes identified, Race10 and HG Type 1.7 were found for the first time in China, and HG Type 3.4.5.7 was the first reported worldwide. Thirty-eight SCN populations (34.5%) were virulent on plant introduction (PI) 548316 (#7) and 15 of them had female indices (FI) ≥ 10% on Pickett. PI 548316 and Pickett were not recommended as parents of breeding against cyst nematode in Jilin province. Peking-type resistance sources were preferred to pi88788-type in Jilin province. In addition, it was found neither the race nor HG scheme is sufficient for differentiating SCN populations in Jilin province, nor the combination of the two methods is recommended for studying the genetic diversity of SCN in Jilin province. That is, Pickett which was removed in HG scheme should be included not as an indicator line but just to separate different races from the same HG type. © 2021 Friends Science Publishers

The soybean cyst nematode (SCN), Heterodera glycines, is the most damaging pathogen of soybean. Use of resistant cultivars is an effective strategy to manage SCN, but it also selects for virulent populations over time. A 12-year field experiment was initiated in 2003 to study how tillage and 11 different sequences of four cultivars impact SCN population dynamics and virulence. An SCN-susceptible cultivar and three resistant cultivars (R1, R2, and R3 derived from cultivars PI 88788, Peking, and PI 437654, respectively) were used. Tillage had minimal effect on SCN population density. Compared with no till, conventional tillage resulted in a faster increase of SCN virulence to Peking when the SCN was selected by R2 and virulence to PI 88788 by R3. Among the three SCN-resistant cultivars, R1 supported the greatest population density, R2 supported intermediate population density, and R3 supported the least SCN population density. The SCN populations selected by R1 overcame the resistance in PI 88788 but not in Peking and PI 437654. R2 selected SCN populations that overcame the resistance in Peking but not in PI 88788 and PI 437654. In contrast, R3 selected SCN populations that overcame both PI 88788 and Peking sources of resistance. There was no increase of virulence to PI 437654 in any cultivar sequence. R1 in rotation with R2 or R3 had a negative effect on female index on Peking. Susceptible soybean reduced SCN virulence to Peking, indicating that there was fitness cost of the Peking virulent SCN type. These results suggest that rotation of Peking with PI 88788 is a good strategy for managing the SCN, and susceptible cultivar and no till may reduce SCN virulence selection pressure in some rotations.

AbstractSoybean cyst nematode (SCN), Heterodera glycines, is one of the most important pests in soybean production worldwide. In China, 11 different races of SCN, including a newly identified race ‘X12’ with super-virulence, have been surveyed and found to be distributed in 22 provinces. Among them, races 1, 3 and 4 are dominant in the two principal soybean-producing areas, Northeast China and Huanghuaihai Valley, causing over 120 million dollars of annual yield loss. Rapid and reliable PCR-based approaches have been developed for the molecular diagnosis of SCN. High-throughput methods for the identification of soybean resistance against SCN are also developed with specific single nucleotide polymorphism markers by using Kompetitive Allele Specific PCR technology. Over 10,000 soybean germplasm sources were evaluated for their SCN resistance, and 28 SCN-resistant soybean accessions were selected to construct an applied core collection, which has been used for soybean breeding in China. Recently, the genome sequences of SCN and soybean are publically available, and two major SCN-resistant genes (rhg1 and Rhg4) have been identified in soybean, which greatly facilitate the researches on SCN virulence and soybean resistance, and also soybean resistance breeding against SCN. However, the management of SCN still faces many bottlenecks, for instance, the single resistance genes in soybean cultivars can be easily overcome by new SCN races; the identified resistance genes are inadequate to meet the practical breeding needs; and our understanding of the mechanisms of SCN virulence and soybean resistance to SCN are limited. SCN is a destructive threat to soybean production throughout the world including China. In this review, the major progress on soybean SCN is summarized, mainly focusing on the recent research progress in SCN, soybean resistance to SCN and integrated management of SCN in China, and aiming at a better understanding of the current SCN research status and prospects for future work.

Twenty-three selected advanced spring wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) lines from Ottawa Research and Development Centre (ORDC) were compared with four known cultivars for agronomic performance at eight sites in 2016 (Ottawa CEF-C1, Ottawa CEF-C2, St. Isidore, Harrington, Palmerston, Princeville, Kincardine, Beloeil) in Eastern Canada, and for fusarium head blight (FHB). The reaction of these lines to six races of LR was determined in a growth cabinet and the LR susceptible cultivar ‘Morocco’ was included as the control for disease development in these trials. The majority of the selected lines showed no significant differences compared to four check cultivars, however ECSW05 and ECSW48, showed higher yield, moderate resistance to FHB and resistance to most of the tested LR races. Lines ECSW05 and ECSW48 will be advanced to grower’s trials in eastern Canada in 2018 and may be used as sources of resistance to LR for future cultivar development in Eastern Canada.

Soybean cyst nematode (SCN; Heterodera glycines) continues to be the greatest threat to soybean production in the United States. Since host resistance is the primary strategy used to control SCN, knowledge of SCN virulence phenotypes (HG types) is necessary for choosing sources of resistance for SCN management. To characterize SCN virulence phenotypes in North Dakota (ND), a total of 419 soybean fields across 22 counties were sampled during 2015, 2016, and 2017. SCN was detected in 42% of the fields sampled and population densities in these samples ranged from 30 to 92,800 eggs and juveniles per 100 cm3 of soil. The SCN populations from some of the infested fields were virulence phenotyped with seven soybean indicator lines and a susceptible check (Barnes) using the HG type tests. Overall, 73 SCN field populations were successfully virulence phenotyped. The HG types detected in ND were HG type 0 (frequency rate: 36%), 7 (27%), 2.5.7 (19%), 5.7 (11%), 1.2.5.7 (4%), and 2.7 (2%). However, prior to this study only HG type 0 was detected in ND. The designation of each of the HG types detected was then validated in this study by repeating the HG type tests for thirty-three arbitrarily selected samples. This research for the first time reports several new HG types detected in ND and confirms that the virulence of SCN populations is shifting and overcoming resistance, highlighting the necessity of utilization of different resistance sources, rotation of resistance sources, and identification of novel resistance sources for SCN management in ND.

ABSTRACT Anthracnose is an important disease caused by the Colletotrichum lindemuthianum (Sacc. & Magnus) fungus in bean crops. It occurs throughout Brazil and may cause losses of up to 100 % in grain production. About 20 genes that confer resistance to specific races of the pathogen have already been described in the literature. This study aimed to evaluate bean varieties from the Brazilian states of Santa Catarina and Paraná, regarding the resistance to anthracnose, in two cropping seasons. In addition, two commercial cultivars were used as controls: IPR Tangará, as susceptible; and BRS Campeiro, as moderately resistant. The majority of the local varieties was considered resistant or moderately resistant, being more pronounced the Amendoim cultivar, with large grains and red tegument, evincing resistance in both evaluations. Regarding this, the possibility of using them as resistance sources to anthracnose may be considered, since they also show adaptability to the environmental conditions.

Soybean cyst nematode (SCN; Heterodera glycines; HG) is a widely occurring and damaging pathogen that limits soybean production. Developing resistant cultivars is the most cost-effective method for managing this disease. Genes conferring SCN resistance in soybean have been identified; however, there are SCN populations that overcome known resistance genes. In order to identify additional sources of resistance and potentially new resistance genes, 223 plant introductions (PIs) of G. tomentella and 59 PIs of 12 other perennial Glycine species were inoculated with HG Types 0, HG 2, and HG 1.2.3, and then 36 PIs out of this set were further evaluated with HG Type 1.2.3.4.5.6.7, a population that overcomes all the resistance genes in soybean. Of 223 G. tomentella PIs evaluated, 86 were classified as resistant to three HG types, 69 as resistant to two HG types, and 22 as resistant to one HG type. Of the other 12 perennial Glycine species, all PIs of G. argyrea and G. pescadrensis were resistant to all three HG types. Of the 36 PIs challenged with HG Type 1.2.3.4.5.6.7, 35 were resistant with 16 showing no cyst reproduction. Our study confirms that there are high levels of resistance to SCN among the perennial Glycine species. This represents an untapped resource for use in genetic studies and for improving resistance to SCN in soybean.
