Book Description
Currently, there is no economical way to produce large quantities of F1 hybrid soybean seed in the USA. One of the fundamental requirements for hybrid seed production is the availability of a stable male-sterile, female-fertile system. However, the more challenging barrier is the efficient transfer of pollen from the male parent to the female parent. This could potentially be achieved through pollinator insects. The objectives were to evaluate seed set among soybean lines segregating for male sterility, use phenotypic recurrent selection program to increase pollinator attraction of those male-sterile female-fertile identified as superior parental lines, and conduct agronomic tests for heterosis in the hybrids produced through insect-mediated cross-pollination. Differential seed set was observed among the evaluated lines, indicating that preferential pollination was present, which could suggest that selection among male-sterile, female-fertile lines can be made in order to obtain female parents suitable to produce hybrid soybean seed. Phenotypic recurrent selection in a favorable environment was successful in increasing the number of seed per male-sterile soybean plant. Mean seed-set per family as high as 304 seeds per male-sterile plant was observed after just two selection cycles. This suggested that very few genes with major effects may regulate the traits related to pollinator preference and out-crossing. A differential response was observed among the cross-combinations, suggesting variability for those traits among the parental lines. Evaluation of agronomic data revealed that positive heterosis was present in some of the crosses tested. Although heterosis is not a static attribute and is strongly affected by the environment, some promising parental combinations were found.

Book Description
Soybean is the second major world oil seed and the leading source of high quality vegetable protein. Recurrent selection (RS) is a cyclic breeding method that improves population performance for quantitative traits. The UP2Y population was developed from seven unimproved plant introductions (PIs) selected on their high seed protein concentration and diverse geographical origin. The UP3Y population was developed from eight elite cultivars and experimental lines adapted to North America with diverse pedigrees selected on their high grain yield and above-average seed protein concentration. The objective of this study was to evaluate effects of RS for increased grain yield on major agronomic traits of the soybean UP2Y and UP3Y populations. Response to selection was measured by evaluating the 10 highest-yielding lines selected at the end of each cycle. The seven founders of the UP2Y and seven of the eight founders of the UP3Y populations were evaluated along with 10 parental lines of each of three (Cycle 1, Cycle 2 and Cycle 3) and two (Cycle 1 and Cycle 3) cycles of the UP2Y and UP3Y populations, respectively, in randomized complete block designs across eight environments with three replications. After three cycles of RS in the UP2Y population, grain yield increased significantly from a mean of 3070 kg ha-1 for Cycle 0 (C0) to a mean of 5037 kg ha-1 for Cycle 3 (C3), averaging a significant gain of 673 kg ha-1 cycle-1. Seed protein concentration decreased an average of 16 g kg-1 cycle-1. Seed oil concentration increased an average of 8.7 g kg-1 cycle -1. Results of the UP3Y evaluation showed that after three cycles of RS grain yield increased significantly from a mean of 4200 kg ha-1 for C0 to a mean of 4499 kg ha-1 for C3, averaging a significant gain of 101 kg ha-1 cycle-1. Seed protein concentration decreased an average of 2.8 g kg-1 cycle-1 while seed oil concentration increased an average of 0.8 g kg-1 cycle -1.

Book Description
Genetic improvement for yield in soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merrill] has been accomplished by breeding within a narrow elite gene pool. Plant introductions (PIs) may be useful for obtaining additional increases in yield if unique and desirable alleles at quantitative trait loci (QTL) can be identified. The objectives of the study were to identify QTL for yield in elite and PI germplasm and to determine if the PIs possessed favorable alleles for yield. Allele frequencies were measured with simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers in three populations that differed in their percentage of PI parentage. AP10 had 40 PI parents, AP12 had 40 PI and 40 elite parents, and AP14 had 40 elite parents. Four cycles of recurrent selection for yield had been conducted in the three populations. Nei's genetic distance indicated that AP10, AP12, and AP14 remained distinct through cycle 4 (C4), but that the genetic diversity narrowed within each population. Less gametic phase disequilibrium (GPD) was observed in the parents used to form the cycle 0 (C0) populations than in C4 of AP12 and AP14. Allele frequencies of the highest-yielding C4 lines in the three populations were compared with the parents used to form the populations of the initial cycles. Allele flow was simulated to account for genetic drift. Ninety-two SSRs were associated with 56 yield QTL. Nine of the QTL had been identified in previous research. Thirty-three favorable marker alleles were unique to the PI parents. The restriction of alleles from the 40 C0 parents to the 20 cycle 1 (C1) parents of AP10 was reflected in the number of alleles that had frequency changes and could explain the reduced genetic variance for yield in the C4 of AP10. Genetic asymmetry may account for the different genetic gain for yield that had been observed between AP10 and AP14.
