Soybean Cyst Nematode: The Silent Threat Stealing Your Yield

So we have a range of different texture, sandy to very heavy soils and everything in between. The sandy soil allows the the animal to move faster. And it does move in very, very short distance, right? It also creates more of additional abiotic interaction. So those soils will get dry faster, plants will stress faster, and you put that pathogen there and it cause more significant yield reduction.

Once the nematode hit the root, It doesn't matter if it's in a sandy soil or in a heavy soil. It will reproduce. So we may be delaying, you know, that dramatic yield reduction that we see in sandy soils when we plant in heavier soils with nematode. But when that population builds up and it's pretty much across, then we're in pretty much the same fate. Okay.

No, from our conversation, I will caution planting as susceptible, right, in any instance, just because of how fast the nematode can reproduce. And the SCN Coalition, we have a very nice infographic of how explosive these populations can be when we provide a very susceptible cultivar. Now, like Dylan mentioned, most of our PI88-NAA, by definition, is already susceptible at

some degree to the populations of nematodes we have. But I think for the audience, there's a really easy way to remember a nice integrated management strategy, the triple R management to SCN. Rotate, rotate, and rotate. Rotate to a non-host. Rotate different soybean varieties. Don't feed this animal the same generic material because it will adapt And rotate sources of resistance.

And on top of that, sample your field so you know if you have it so you can monitor those numbers and consider acid protecting. Because you're going to have other stuff other than soybean disease nematode also threatening your soybean health.

Yeah. Yeah. No, that's a way to think about science and next research, Corey. I totally agree with you. And one thing that we were talking about, how excited we are of new products coming, one is nemasphere from BASF, for example. It's a transgenic soybean.

And what it does, it expresses this cryprosing, you know, like the BT, the BT that we know from exactly the same, but it's one that targets these nematodes. So... You just mentioned it. How can we do the same thing? And it's already out there. It's going to be hopefully available in 2028 pending registration and everything, right? But can we do something else?
