The sub-tropical legume, soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.], has lower grain yields at low temperatures, mainly due to reduced nitrogen fixation. The isoflavone genistein has been identified as one of the major compounds in soybean seed and root extracts responsible for inducing the expression of the B. japonicum nod genes. A 2-year field study was conducted in 1997 and 1998 with 11 soybean cultivars recommended for Québec, and representing a range of yield potentials and maturity groups. The objective of this study was to assess the variability among soybean cultivar maturity groups in terms of response to genistein application under Canadian short season and cool-spring conditions. The experiments were organized in a randomized complete block design with three replications. The two genistein treatments included B. japonicum inoculant pre-incubated with 20 m genistein and B. japonicum inoculant only. The inoculants were applied into the furrow at the time of planting. The results of this study showed that genistein pre-incubated B. japonicum increased soybean grain yield and protein content over two years. In 1998, pod number per plant–1 and seed number plant–1 were also clearly increased. When 20 m genistein was applied in 1998, cultivars in the late maturity group had 28 and 70% more shoot and total protein content, respectively, than the early maturity groups with or without genistein, or the late maturity without genistein, in 1998. There was no interaction between genistein application and soybean cultivar in this study, indicating that both early and late maturing cultivars responded similarly to genistein pretreated inocula. Pre-incubation of B. japonicum with genistein can increase N2 fixation potential in short season areas. Key words: Soybean, cultivars, genistein, yield, and yield components 相似文献
