Acceleron Seed Treatment system is a seed coating that protects from insects as well as mold, mildew, and disease. It was developed and patented by Monsanto . The Acceleron Seed Treatment System is available for Genuity Roundup Ready 2 yield soybeans and Smartstax seeds.
The soybean aphid (Aphis glycines) is an insect pest of soybean (Glycine max) that is exotic to North America. [1] The soybean aphid is native to Asia. [2] It has been described as a common pest of soybeans in China [3] and as an occasional pest of soybeans in Indonesia, [4] Japan, [5] Korea, [6] Malaysia, [2] the Philippines, [7] and Thailand. [8]
Bean leaf beetle abundance increased with the increase of soybean production in the 20th century, but their spread northward was prevented by the inhospitality of northern climates. [3] The availability of soybean is the primary constraint for the beetles, so the beetles can’t live in an area that doesn’t have soybeans. [3]
The bean weevils or seed beetles are a subfamily (Bruchinae) of beetles, now placed in the family Chrysomelidae, though they have historically been treated as a separate family. They are granivores, and typically infest various kinds of seeds or beans, living most of their lives inside a single seed. The subfamily includes about 1,650 species ...

In 1999, a review of Roundup Ready soybean crops found that, compared to the top conventional varieties, they had a 6.7% lower yield. [9] This so called "yield drag" follows the same pattern observed when other traits are introduced into soybeans by conventional breeding. [ 17 ]
