Tarnished plant bugs and thrips are major insect pests for South Carolina cotton. But Clemson University researchers assure growers help is on the way.
During the 2022 Agronomic and Vegetable Field Day at the Edisto Research and Education Center (REC)...
Scientists work to get a handle on taproot decline
A monster that lives by eating the dead is hiding underground, and it has developed a taste for soybeans.
For the past two years, Arkansas Agricultural Experiment Station researchers have worked in...
University of Missouri Extension agronomists reported during their weekly teleconference that sudden death syndrome is showing up in soybean fields across the state.
MU Extension plant pathologist Kaitlyn Bissonnette says she is not surprised that the yield-robbing disease has reared...
Economic losses due to soybean diseases in the United States from 1996 to 2016 amounted to more than $95 billion, according to a research team from Penn State's College of Agricultural Sciences who examined the long-term impact of soybean...
Sometimes, unexpected discoveries in the course of scientific investigation open new avenues of research.
Virologist Ioannis Tzanetakis and doctoral student Jing Zhou used advanced genetic tools to identify and better understand the transmission of an orthotospovirus that causes vein necrosis...
Kentucky grain producers have a new, free tool at their disposal to see the past yield losses and economic impacts of common diseases affecting corn and soybeans. This tool can help them plan their disease management strategy for the...

Soybeans submitted through the Plant Disease and Insect Clinic have been confirmed to have the causal agent of sudden death syndrome, Fusarium virguliforme (syn. Fusarium solani f. sp. glycines). This disease is not annually a...
University of Missouri scientists have created a genetic map of two more soybeans, providing additional information that will aid future breeding of varieties with improved traits.
Until this most recent gene sequencing, only one cultivar — Williams 82 — had...
The Environmental Protection Agency has registered Delaro fungicide, a premix of two products, from Bayer CropScience for use on soybeans and corn. It is registered in most states except for Utah, California and Alaska.
