Other claims from this paper (17)
- Association Irrigation, planting date and maturity group or genotype significantly affected soybean seed quality.
- Association Maturity group and genotype contributed the most to variation in soybean seed quality, followed by irrigation and planting date.
- Intervention effect Irrigation improved soybean standard and cold germination for most maturity groups.
- Intervention effect Late planting improved soybean standard and cold germination for most maturity groups.
- Intervention effect Irrigation tended to increase soybean seed protein content.
- Intervention effect Planting date had no impact on soybean seed protein and oil content.
- Intervention effect Planting date had little or no effect on soybean visual seed quality and seed pathogen infection.
- Association Maturity group and genotype significantly affected all soybean seed quality traits.
- Observation Late-maturing soybean genotypes had higher standard and cold germination than early-maturing genotypes.
- Observation Late-maturing soybean genotypes had fewer pathogen-infected seeds than early-maturing genotypes.
- Observation Late-maturing soybean genotypes had better visual seed quality than early-maturing genotypes.
- Intervention effect Wide-row spacing improved soybean seed germination.
- Intervention effect Delaying planting from April to June decreased germination and vigor of early-maturing soybean genotypes.
- Intervention effect Delaying planting from April to June improved germination and vigor of late-maturity soybean genotypes.
- Association Early-maturing soybean genotypes responded more to irrigation when planted late.
- Association Cold and standard germination correlated significantly with visual quality, disease-free seed and Phomopsis-infected seed.
- Recommendation The authors conclude that variety selection and irrigation are important for high seed quality in early-maturing soybean.
