Various methods and compositions are provided for identifying and/or selecting soybean plants or soybean germplasm with improved resistance to soybean cyst nematode. In certain embodiments, the method comprises detecting at least one marker locus that is associated with resistance to soybean cyst nematode. In other embodiments, the method further comprises detecting at least one marker profile or haplotype associated with resistance to soybean cyst nematode. In further embodiments, the method comprises crossing a selected soybean plant with a second soybean plant. Further provided are markers, primers, probes and kits useful for identifying and/or selecting soybean plants or soybean germplasm with improved resistance to soybean cyst nematode.
A method of identifying a first soybean plant or a first soybean germplasm that displays improved resistance to soybean cyst nematode, the method comprising detecting in the genome of said first soybean plant or in the genome of said first soybean germplasm at least one marker locus that is associated with the resistance, wherein:
An isolated polynucleotide capable of detecting a marker locus of the soybean genome comprising:
A kit for detecting or selecting at least one soybean plant or soybean germplasm with improved resistance to soybean cyst nematode, the kit comprising:
