Some cool #nematode sightings in the lab today. The parasite being parasitized! Remember, we’re open for SCN samples, so keep your spring soybean field samples coming! @TheSCNCoalition @kmbiss @Mo_Soy @MUturfpath @MUExtension
We are proud to have Dr. Kaitlyn Bissonnette @kmbiss, the MU Extension Plant Pathologist, as our new Director at SCN Diagnostics and wish Dr. Melissa Mitchum, our previous director, the best at her new home at the University of Georgia #scn #soiltesting
After a long, cold winter, temperatures are finally starting to rise and that means plant-parasitic nematodes are starting to thrive! Test your soil to know if these pests are present in your fields. Visit scndiagnostics.com for more information #scn #nematodes #soilsampling

It’s no longer a question, but a reality: Third survey in 3 decades says SCN is adapting and reproducing on the current source of resistance. Latest results here: apsjournals.apsnet.org/doi/a…
Our new neighbor! It was a great morning at the MU Plant Growth Research Facility Topping Off Celebration! Thanks to everyone who made this a reality!
Sharing our results at #soy2018 on resistance gene stacks and rotation to combat SCN.

Got SCN? You cannot rely on visible aboveground symptoms to answer the question. Now is a great time to pull up #soybeans and look for the presence of adult females exposed on the surface of the roots. Can you identify the two females in this picture? #SCNCoalition
A new crop of @MUPlantSciences graduate students for the advancement of plant pathology (SAPP) working on #soybean #SCN #research representing @cafnr @mosoy @scndiagnostics @MOStateFair!
We enjoyed talking with attendees about SCN. Do you know your number? #SCNcoalition
Attendees at our Show Me #Soy School yesterday enjoyed learning about the latest #soybean #research, watching demonstrations and joining us for a high oleic soybean oil fish fry. If you missed coming to Soy School, be sure to check out mosoy.org/ to stay up to date!
The Alfred Friendly Press Fellows at MU’s Reynolds Journalism Institute, co-sponsored by the Deaton and Danforth Institutes, visited today. They learned about the soybean cyst nematode pest problem in U.S. agriculture and the research we are doing to combat the problem!

Now that spring is officially here, sampling for SCN is a great way to know if this pest may cause you trouble throughout the growing season. Visit scndiagnostics.com/ for more information!

Have you ever wondered what genes a soybean cyst nematode uses to attack a root? Researchers are one step closer to the answer with the release of the SCN parasitic transcriptome (i.e., a library of genes that are on during attack)! rdcu.be/Gqug #MizzouResearch
