In this study, a 3-yr experimental study was undertaken in three geographical locations of China from 2008 to 2010, including the Northeast（40.66-45.85°N）, Huang-Huai（34.75-38.04°N） and southern（22.82-30.60°N） eco-regions with about 250 accessions in each region to clarify the classification of maturity group（MG） and identify the cultivars with stable GP to increase the knowledge about the GP distribution of soybean cultivars in China. GPs of soybean cultivars in different eco-regions were significant different with a gradual decrease from 115-125 d in the Northeast part to the 85-100 d in the southern part of China. The geographical location was the major factor for GP of cultivars from the Northeast, while the year of planting was the major factor affecting the stability of GPs in Huang-Huai summer and southern summer soybean. AMMI2（additive main effects and multiplicativeinteraction）-Biplot analysis showed that the GPs of soybean cultivars from the Northeast eco-region have a comparatively satisfactory environmental stability. Moreover, soybean cultivars with moderate GP/MG and stable environment adaptability in different eco-regions were identified based on the linear regression and AMMI analysis, which was important for the accurate classification of soybean MGs in future. Taken together, our results reflected the genetic diversity, geographical distribution and environmental stability of the Chinese soybean GP trait. Soybean cultivars with stable GP for various Chinese eco-regions would be beneficial for Chinese soybean genetic improvement, varietal introduction, exchange, and soybean breeding program for wide adaptability.展开更多

The seeds of T4 generation were sowed on saline land of which salt concentration was 0.19% and pH was 8.43, and agronomic traits including growth period, plant height, numbers of main nodes, branching numbers, pods per plant, numbers of seeds per plant, and weight of 100-seed were collected and comparing to control plants Dongnong50 were made. The impacts of TaDREB3 gene on agronomic traits of soybeans under high concentration of salt were discussed. The results showed that the growth period was not altered in transgenic line with TaDREB3 under high concentration of saline and alkali, the extremely significant or significant increase in the numbers of main nodes, pods per plant and in branching numbers and other agronomic traits in transgenic lines in comparing with non-transgenic lines was an indicator of their resistance to saline-alkali stress展开更多
