Soybean aphids join line-up

Article Abstract:

Dealerships and reseearchers are plotting control strategies for the Chinese aphid for the 2001 soybean season. The pest showed up in Midwest soybean fields during the 2000 growing season and resulted in stunted plants. Researchers and dealerships have been translating Japanese, Chinese and Korean scientific journals to learn more about the pest since it was the first time that the insect colonized soybeans.

Monsanto wins DuPont suit

Article Abstract:

DuPont's license to sell seeds containing Monsanto Co's Roundup herbicide- tolerant technology was terminated by the company's merger in 1999, with Pioneer Hi-Bred International. A federal district court's decision means that all sales of Roundup Ready soybean and canola seeds by Pioneer since the merger were unauthorized. Also, Pioneer will need a new license to continue selling Roundup Ready seeds.
