Soybean resistance to SCN was initially identified by Ross and Brim (1957) and included Peking, PI90763, PI209332, and PI84751. Soybean germplasm continued to be introduced mainly from China, and today 118 resistant sources are identified in the USA (Rao-Arelli et al., 1997). The current classification system for SCN populations has designated 16 different races on the basis of their ability to parasitize a set of soybean host differentials (Riggs and Schmitt, 1988). The SCN population originally identified from North Carolina was later categorized as Race 1 (Golden et al., 1970).
Several accessions from soybean germplasm collections were evaluated for resistance to Races 3, 5, and 14 with 118 found to have resistance to one or more races (Anand et al., 1985; Young, 1990, 1995; Nelson et al., 1994). More recently, soybean cultivars in the Southern USA with resistance to Races 3 and 14 are threatened by the widespread occurrence of Race 2 (J.G. Shannon, 1997, personal communication). We have evaluated 86 of the 118 resistant accessions to SCN Races 1 and 2 and nine were determined to have resistance to both races (Rao-Arelli et al., 1997). The objective of this research was to bioassay the remaining 32 accessions from the original 118 for reaction to SCN Races 1 and 2.

A Race 2 population was collected from soybean fields in Beaufort County, North Carolina. This was cultured with limited inbreeding and maintained on roots of `Pickett-71' (Hartwig et al., 1971) for 31 generations before it was used as inoculum in this bioassay.
Thirty-two soybean accessions (PI458175B through PI532444B) with known reaction to SCN Races 3, 5, and 14 were bioassayed in this research. These were in Maturity Groups 0 to VII, and were collected from China, Japan, and South Korea. These accessions plus the four standard host differentials (`Peking', PI90763, PI88788, and Pickett-71), and Hutcheson, a susceptible control, were included in each bioassay. Seeds of PI lines used in this research were obtained from R. L. Nelson, Curator, USDA-ARS, National Soybean Research Laboratory, Urbana, IL.
Bioassays were performed individually for each of the two SCN races in the greenhouse during 1997 to 1998 as described previously (Rao-Arelli et al., 1997). Ten seedlings were included for each of the 32 accessions, susceptible control, and host differentials. Each seedling represented a single replication within a genotype, and the test was completely randomized. In brief, the techniques involved growing plants in 200- by 25-mm plastic micropots filled with steam-pasteurized Brosely fine sandy soil (loamy, mixed thermic Arenic Hapludalf). Approximately 20 of these micropots were placed in a poly-propylene container (20-cm diam), and maintained at 27 ± 1°C in a thermoregulated water bath. Two seeds were planted in each micropot and were thinned to a single seedling per pot after germination. The seedlings were grown for 4 to 5 d prior to their inoculation with SCN eggs. Each seedling was inoculated with 1200 ± 25 eggs in 5 mL of suspension (distilled water) with an automatic pipetter (Rao-Arelli et al., 1991).
Approximately 30 d after inoculation, plant roots were individually washed with a strong jet of water to dislodge white females and cysts. These were counted under a stereomicroscope, and female index (FI) was calculated for the number of females developing on each line in each replication (Golden et al., 1970). Bioassays were repeated three times for each race.
Data for three tests for each race were combined for ANOVA of female indices by the Statistical Analysis System Software (SAS, 1991) and means were separated with Fisher's LSD based on a significant F test. Ratings of resistant (IP = 09%), moderately resistant (IP = 1030%), moderately susceptible (IP = 3160%), and susceptible (IP = >60%) used to classify the reaction of accessions were based on Schmitt and Shannon (1992).

PI 494182 was resistant to SCN Races 3, 5, and 14 (Young, 1995) and additionally found to be resistant to Race 1 and moderately resistant to Race 2 (Table 1). PI 467312 that was previously reported to be resistant to SCN Races 3, 5, and 14 (Young, 1995) was found to be moderately susceptible to Race 1 and moderately resistant to Race 2 (Table 1). PI 507354 was resistant to SCN Races 3 and 5 (Young, 1995) and resistant to Race 1 and moderately resistant to Race 2 (Table 1).
The soybean germplasm collection is a valuable reservoir of genes for continued genetic improvement of soybean. It is also an invaluable gene pool resource for pest resistance and genetic studies. We are currently determining the genetic diversity for these soybean lines using microsatellites. Unique types that are not closely related to Peking, PI88788, and PI437654 will be identified and used for developing soybean cultivars with durable resistance to SCN.SAS Institute 1991
