Glyphosate applications in RR soy increase soil pathogen level
http://www.gene.ch/genet/2001/Jan/msg00016.html
The US study on increased levels of fusarium as a result of glyphosate applications may be particularly important, however, as most Roundup Ready soy varieties are susceptible to the disease 'Sudden Death Syndrome' caused by Fusarium solani f. sp. glycines (http://www.mosoy.org/dec97/soydoc.htm). RR soy varieties with the best resistance to SDS (which has caused some heavy crop losses in recent years) may be only average compared to the most resistant conventional varieties (see: http://ipm.missouri.edu/ipcm/ archives/v8n22/ipmltr3.htm). |
