Authors: R.O. Batista, R.L. Hamawaki, L.B. Sousa, A.P.O. Nogueira and O.T. Hamawaki
The oil and protein contents of soybean grains are important quantitative traits for use in breeding. However, few breeding programs perform selection based on these traits in different environments. This study assessed the adaptability and stability of 14 elite early soybean breeding lines in off-season cultivation with respect to yield, and oil and prot.. Read More»

Selection for wide adaptability and high phenotypic stability of Brazilian soybean genotypes
Authors: V.M. Oliveira, O.T. Hamawaki, A.O. Nogueira, L.B. Sousa, F.M. Santos and R.L. Hamawaki
Advances in genetic enhancement techniques have led to an increase in soybean production. Thus, soybean is currently one the most economically important cultured species worldwide. The objectives of the present study were to study the interaction of soybean genotypes per environment in terms of grain productivity and to evaluate their phenotypic adaptabil.. Read More»

Correlations between traits in soybean (Glycine max L.) naturally infected with Asian rust (Phakopsora pachyrhizi)
Authors: B. Rodrigues, F. Serafim, A.P.O. Nogueira, O.T. Hamawaki, L.B. de Sousa and R.L. Hamawaki
Soybean (Glycine max L.)-breeding programs aim to develop cultivars with high grain yields and high tolerance to Asian soybean rust (Phakopsora pachyrhizi). Considering that the traits targeted for breeding are mainly quantitative in nature, knowledge of associations between traits allows the breeder to formulate indirect selection strategies. In this stu.. Read More»
