Loss of seed viability is a serious hurdle in production and ambient storage soybean. Understanding the factors affecting viability, identification soybean genotype(s) with higher critical for production. In this study, seeds 125 genotypes three different species [Glycine tomentella Hayata, Glycine max subsp. soja (Siebold & Zucc.) H. Ohashi, max(L.) Merr.] 25 RILs (Glycine × max) were tested g...
