1-10. (canceled)
An isolated and purified nucleic acid molecule encoding a biologically active SCN/SDS resistance polypeptide and further comprising an isolated soybean rhg1 and SDS resistance gene, said gene capable of conveying Heterodera glycines-infestation resistance, Fusarium solani-infection resistance, or both Heterodera glycines-infestation resistance and Fusarium solani-infection resistance to a non-resistant soybean germplasm, said gene located within a quantitative trait locus mapping to linkage group G and mapped by genetic markers of SEQ ID NOs:1-6, said gene located along said quantitative trait locus between said markers, wherein said SCN/SDS resistance polypeptide has at least 95% sequence identity to SEQ ID NO 14.
