Abstract

Early planting date and narrow rows increase the yield potential of soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.]. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of these management practices on severity of, and yield loss due to, brown stem rot (BSR) (caused by Phialophora gregata W. Gams). Field studies were conducted for 2 yr (1988 and 1989) at the Hancock, WI, Agricultural Research Station, on a Plainfield loamy sand (mixed, mesic Typic Udipsamments). Treatments were three planting dates (1 May, 15 May, and 30 May), two row widths (7 and 30 in.), and two cultivars (BSR-susceptible cv. Corsoy 79 and BSR-resistant cv. BSR 101). Stem and foliar symptoms were less severe on plants in the delayed planting [...]
