EFFECTS OF THE GAMMA RADIATION IN NUTRITIONAL QUALITY OF SOYBEAN GRAINS Glycine max (L.) The objective of this study was to determine alterations caused by gamma radiation (doses of 0, 2, 4 and 8 kGy) in two different soybean cultivars (BRS 213 and Embrapa 48). The study included analysis of the lipid profi le, isofl avones and total, free and protein-binding polyphenols. Both cultivars showed ...

Efficacy of three rates of aldicarb for control of Hoplolaimus columbus was evaluated on highly tolerant ('Foster'), moderately tolerant ('Coker 368'), and highly susceptible ('Braxton') soybean cultivars planted on 28 June 1985. Average yields of the nontreated cultivars were 557 kg/ha for Braxton, 1,309 kg/ha for Coker 368, and 1,682 kg/ha for Foster. Yield differences were significant. Aldic...

We used native polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis to identify polymorphism levels in α- and β-esterase loci from leaf tissues of Brazilian soybean cultivars for the analysis of population genetic diversity and structure, and to investigate relationships between conventional and genetically modified cultivars. The cultivars included lines developed by a soybean-grower cooperative (CD), by ...

Root-lesion nematodes (primarily Pratylenchus penetrans) were monitored in two marigold cultivars (Tagetes tenuifolia cv. Nemakill and cv. Nemanon), annual ryegrass (Lolium multiflorum cv. Lemtal), red clover (Trifolium pratense cv. Florex), and soybean (Glycine max cv. Proteus), and in the following potato (Solanum tuberosum cv. Superior) crop during three growth sequences. Meadow fescue (Fest...

Objective: To evaluate the effects of bacteria and vermicompost on phenology and growth of soybean trial an experiment was conducted as split plot in a completely randomized block design with three replications. Methods: Main plots of experiment at two levels included the non-use and the use of bacteria and the subplots at three levels included the non-use of vermicompost (control), the use of ...

Three different cosmid clones were isolated from a genomic library of the tomato pathogen Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato, which, when introduced into the soybean pathogen P. syringae pv. glycinea, caused a defensive hypersensitive response (HR) in certain soybean cultivars. Each clone was distinguished by the specific cultivars that reacted hypersensitively and by the intensity of the HR elici...

effect of five soybean varieties (sahar, jk, bp, williams and l17) on life cycle and fecundity of the beet armyworm, spodoptera exigua (hã¼bner) was evaluated at temperature of 25 â± 1â°c, 60 â± 5% r.h. and a photoperiod of 16: 8 (l: d) h. the preimaginal development period of males and females was longest on l17 (30.17 â± 0.28 and 29.63 â± 0.23 days) and shortest on bp and sahar. the adult lon...

Prospects for utilizing whole-genome association analysis in autogamous plant populations appear promising due to the reported high levels of linkage disequilibrium (LD). To determine the optimal strategies for implementing association analysis in soybean (Glycine max L. Merr.), we analyzed the structure of LD in three regions of the genome varying in length from 336 to 574 kb. This analysis wa...
