Abstract

We evaluated the effects of soybean planting date and maturity group (MG) on final population density of Heterodera glycines and yield in cultivars susceptible to H, glycines grown in monoculture and in rotations with 1 or 2 yr of nonhosts. Population density of eggs and eggs plus second-stage juveniles of H. glycines declined to barely detectable levels after 2 yr of nonhost culture. Population densities of this nematode were consistently greater (P=0.05) for an MG VII cultivar than an MG V cultivar. Planting date had variable effects on final population density of H. glycines: early planting resulted in the highest nematode numbers in some years, whereas late planting was associated with significantly greater (P=0.05) population densities in other years
