Studies of Soybean Maturity Genes (Glycine Max, Photoperiod, Flowering)
Studies were conducted to investigate the genetics of reproductive development and latitudinal adaptation in soybeans {Glycine max (L.) Merr.}. Maturity gene isolines that were developed in the backgrounds of the cultivars Clark and Harosoy were used to examine the effects of maturity gene pairs E(,1)e(,1), E(,2)e(,2), and E(,3)e(,3) on reproductive development and as testers in genetic analysis of maturity genes in soybean strains.
