Tolerance to Hoplolaimus columbus in glyphosate-resistant, transgenic soybean cultivars
2002
Koenning, S.R.
Transgenic soybean cultivars, resistant to glyphosate herbicide in maturity groups V and VI, were evaluated for tolerance to the Columbia lance nematode, Hoplolaimus columbus, in field experiments conducted in 1998 and 1999. Treatment with 42 liter/ha of 1,3-dichloropropene was effective in suppressing H. columbus population densities in a split-plot design. Fumigation increased soybean yield, but a significant cultivar x fumigation interaction indicated variation in cultivar response to H. columbus. A tolerance index (yield of nontreated/yield of treated x 100) was used to compare cultivar differences. Two cultivars in maturity group VI and one cultivar in maturity group V had a tolerance index greater than 90, indicating a high level of tolerance.
