Summary Selection and inbreeding of soybean cyst nematodes increased populations' ability to produce cysts on some soybean lines with concurrent decreases in numbers of cysts on other soybean lines: evidence that some alleles for incompatibility were either linked or at the same loci. Some responses could be explained only by linkage of nematode genes for avirulence. Linkage of nematode alleles for incompatibility could be involved when selection increased numbers of cysts on several lines even though the usual interpretation has been that the lines had some of the same genes for resistance. Most of the lines used in this study may have fewer alleles for incompatibility than most “resistant” lines. Use of these lines with fewer genes for resistance should help in the identification of individual alleles for incompatibility necessary for resolving the allelism and/or linkage of these nematode genes.
