A method of determining the presence of soybean sudden death syndrome resistance in the soybean plant in a greenhouse setting, the method comprising the steps of: (a) inoculating soil with a low density inoculum of Fusarium solani; (b) planting a soybean plant in said inoculated soil; (c) growing said plant in said soil in a greenhouse; (d) isolating Fusarium solani-infected tissue from said plant; (e) culturing said infected tissue for a period of time sufficient to allow for fungal colony forming unit growth; (f) scoring at least one of disease severity and infection severity in said plant using the number of said fungal colony forming units; and (g) correlating at least one of said disease severity and said infection severity to at least one of disease severity and infection severity data from genetic markers associated with soybean sudden death syndrome resistance to identify a correlation, wherein a statistically significant correlation indicates presence of soybean sudden death syndrome resistance in said soybean plant. Also provided is a method of characterizing resistance to soybean sudden death syndrome in a soybean plant, the method comprising the steps of: (a) isolating roots from a soybean plant infected by Fusariurn solani; (b) culturing the root on a culture plate including a restrictive growth medium that provides for slow fungal growth and restricted bacterial growth; (c) determining root infection severity by statistically evaluating the number of Fusarium solani colony forming units on said culture plate; and (d) characterizing resistance to soybean sudden death syndrome in said soybean plant based on said determined root infection severity.

Inventive embodiments include a system for preventing Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) in an infant, by the application of Stochastic Resonance neurological stimuli. The system includes a crib mattress and copper noise grids, wherein the copper noise grids are embedded in the crib mattress. The system also includes a mechanism for generating time controlled white noise and time controlled cyclic signals, combined with a multitude of varying frequencies and harmonics, wherein the mechanism is adjustable for measured local (near crib) white noise power density levels, the mechanism further adjustable for diurnal and seasonal white noise power density level changes. The system also includes circuitry effective for producing positive and negative adjustable DC voltage levels.

The invention relates to methods and compositions for identifying soybean plants that are tolerant, have improved tolerance or are susceptible to Fusarium solani infection (the causative agent of sudden death syndrome or SDS). The methods use molecular genetic markers to identify, select and / or construct disease-tolerant plants or identify and counterselect disease-susceptible plants. Soybean plants that display tolerance or improved tolerance to Fusarium solani infection that are generated by the methods of the invention are also a feature of the invention.

The present invention relates to the control of fungal pathogens, such as pathogens that cause sudden death syndrome, in plants by applying one or more polyene fungicides to a plant seed, soil and / or plant roots.

Soybean cyst nematode and soybean sudden death syndrome resistance genes, soybean cyst nematode and soybean sudden death syndrome resistant plant lines, and methods of breeding and engineering same.

The feed prepared by the method disclosed by the invention can prevent the horse sudden death syndromes very effectively.

The invention provides a real-time fluorescence PCR method and a kit for detecting sudden death syndrome virus of soybean. By optimizing reaction conditions, the results of the specific testing and sensitivity test show that the detection method has strong specificity and high sensitivity, and is suitable for quick diagnosis and port quarantine for Fusarium tucumaniae and Fusarium virguliforme.

The invention discloses a compound propolis composition for treating sudden death syndrome in poultry, and a preparation method thereof, and relates to the field of animal medicines. The preparation method for the composition comprises the following steps of: (1), performing ultra micro grinding on all components in a formula and then screening with a 700-mesh sieve; (2) weighing 15 to 35 weight parts of propolis, 10 to 30 weight parts of atractylodes lancea, 15 to 35 weight parts of sanguisorba officinalis, and 10 to 35 weight parts of astragalus, and mixing for 5 to 10 minutes until a composition is uniform; (3), weighing 10 to 35 weight parts of prepared rehmannia root, 15 to 35 weight parts of indigowoad root, 10 to 35 weight parts of plantain herb, 15 to 45 weight parts of motherwortherb, and 15 to 45 weight parts of gardenia, and mixing for 5 to 10 minutes until a composition is uniform; and (4) mixing the composition which is obtained in the step (2) and the composition which is obtained in the step (3), and continuously mixing for 10 to 15 minutes until a mixture is uniform. The invention has the advantages that: the formula is reasonable, and the composition is easy to prepare, does not have toxic or side effect, and has high bioavailability due to ultra micro grinding, and a very obvious curative effect, and has a special effect of treating sudden death syndrome in poultry through clinical verification; pollution and medicinal residuals are avoided; and poultry do not have medicine resistance.

The present invention relates to a method of increasing plant resistance to plant pathogens, particularly Sudden Death Syndrome in soybean against Fusarium virguliforme, through the use of Fusarium resistance nucleic acid molecules isolated from Glycine max and Fusarium virguliforme. In these plants, at least one heterologous Fusarium resistance protein is introduced in comparison to the wild-type plants to confer resistance to plant pathogens. The invention relates to transgenic plants and / or plant cells having increased resistance to plant pathogens, to expression vectors, transformed plants and plant cells as well as the use of such plants in a plant breeding program.
