Other claims from this paper (7)
- Association High temperatures and moderate rainfall during seed filling coincided with 399—476 g kg−1 seed protein.
- Association Seed protein content was reduced to 265–347 g kg−1 in seasons with insufficient nitrogen fixation or more precipitation during seed filling.
- Intervention effect Late nitrogen fertilisation increased protein content in a set of 60 soybean genotypes.
- Observation Genetic variation in seed protein content was considerable despite environmental effects.
- Observation Genotype by environment interaction for seed protein content was low.
- Association Seed protein content was moderately negatively correlated with seed yield.
- Recommendation The authors consider selection of early maturing soybean genotypes for improved seed protein feasible.
