Seed production of wild soybean (Glycine soja Sieb. et Zucc.) under favorable, ruderal, and natural growing conditions.

ABSTRACT: Field trials were conducted in Japan under different growing conditions to better understand seed production of wild soybean (Glycine soja Seib. et Zucc.). The objectives of these trials were to evaluate yield and yield components of wild soybean: (1) across 11 diverse populations grown under favorable conditions to assess seed production potential, (2) under different planting densities (112, 208, 416, and 832 plants/m2) to assess intra-specific competition, and (3) across growing conditions (favorable, ruderal, and natural) to assess the impacts of environmental stress and inter-specific competition. Significant differences in yield and seed number observed among the evaluated wild soybean populations were predominantly due to environmental effects and genetic by environmental interactio
