Title
Seed Water Concentration and Accumulation of Protein and Oil in Soybean Seeds
Florencia B. Poeta; José L. Rotundo; Lucas Borrás; et al. Crop Science 2014. doi:10.2135/cropsci2014.03.0204
Other claims from this paper (8)
- Observation In soybean seeds the WC L and WC M values differed significantly among oil, protein and residual.
- Observation WC values were higher for residual accumulation in soybean seeds.
- Observation WC values were lower for oil accumulation in soybean seeds.
- Observation Residual accumulation started first in soybean seeds, followed by protein and then oil as seeds desiccate.
- Association Genotypes with lower WC M had a longer duration of seed component accumulation in soybean.
- Intervention effect Increasing assimilate supply per seed decreased WC L for all seed components in soybean.
- Intervention effect Increasing assimilate supply per seed had little impact on WC M in soybean.
- Recommendation A water relations framework can characterize accumulation patterns of individual seed components across soybean genotypes and environments.
