2017 Soybean Field Crop Trials Results

Transcription

1 Field Crop Trials Results Minnesota Agricultural Experiment Station and the College of Food, Agricultural and Natural Resource Sciences Each year Minnesota Agricultural Experiment Station scientists conduct performance tests of appropriately adapted public and private soybean entries. Companies are charged a fee for each entry they enter to partially cover the costs of conducting these tests. One of the stipulations of the testing program is that the company is marketing or intends to begin marketing the entry in the next growing season. This information is also available electronically at edu or The 2017 growing conditions were fair to good throughout most of the season for most of Minnesota. At least 90% of the Minnesota soybean crop was rated fair to excellent by the USDA throughout the whole growing season. Temperatures were generally near average across the whole state for most of the season, with the exception of August being markedly cooler than average. These lower temperatures in August delayed harvest of the soybean variety trials, as well as for the soybean crop in general in Harvesting of variety trials was not completed until the first week of November this year. Precipitation across the state was generally below average in June and July, and above average in August. Northwest Minnesota was below average in precipitation in May, while the southern half of Minnesota was above average. Parts of Northwest Minnesota, such as Crookston, were particularly dry throughout the June, July and Location 2017 Planting Date Callaway May 18 Crookston May 12 Danvers May 29 Downer May 24 Fairfax May 16 Lamberton May 15 Moorhead May 19 Morris May 13 Roseau May 12 Rosemount May 10 Shelly May 7 Thief River Falls May 18 Waseca May 31 Westbrook May 14 August, resulting in low yields and small seed sizes. Many severe localized weather events this year resulted in variable growing conditions from site to site. The right mix of precipitation and temperature early in season also resulted in severe iron deficiency chlorosis symptoms throughout much of western Minnesota, especially in the Red River Valley. Tables 1 to 4 provide results from tests of available conventional, special purpose, and transgenic entries adapted to the far northern, northern, central and southern production zones. The map shows test locations and zone boundaries. All of these tests were planted between May 7 and May 31 at planting rates of 160,000 seeds/acre. Herbicides were used as necessary for good weed control. Row spacings were 10 inches at Roseau, Callaway, Moorhead, Shelly, Thief River Falls and Downer; 12 inches at Crookston; and 30 inches at all other locations. Plots were machine harvested using 1 a small plot combine. The trials at Downer were lost due to excessively dry conditions. Tables 5 to 10 provide characteristics and performance data from specialpurpose soybean entry tests. These tests were conducted to provide reliable data for growers who are interested in producing special-purpose soybeans, which are typically grown under contract. Table 11 provides important characteristics of publicly developed entries in the 2017 tests as well as those for which seed is available. Tables 12 to 14 provide results from the performance tests of soybean cyst nematode (SCN) resistant entries in infested field sites near Callaway, Danvers, Downer, Fairfax, Lamberton, Rosemount and Waseca. Egg counts Locations of 2017 soybean trials.

2 for the fields were not available at the time of publication. SCN pressure should be gauged by comparing a susceptible check to resistant varieties within that same range of maturity (+/- 5 days). Tables 15 displays results from greenhouse tests conducted by the Nematology Laboratory at the University of Minnesota Southern Research and Outreach Center in Waseca, MN. Plants were grown in soil inoculated with an HG type 0 (race 3) population of soybean cyst nematode. To better understand and use the data provided in these tables, please carefully read the following additional information. Relative and Calendar Dates of Soybeans are photoperiod sensitive; that is, they respond to changing day length. The actual calendar date of maturity achievement is affected by latitude. Each entry has a narrow range (about 100 miles) of north-south adaptation. Soybean yield and quality are best achieved when physiological maturity occurs before a hard frost. is determined visually by noting the calendar date when 95 percent of the pods show their genetically programmed mature color. The dates for 2017 are provided in the tables under the column heading Date. Harvest dates are typically 7 to 14 days later depending upon drying conditions. Almost all entries were essentially mature before a hard frost. Relative maturity ratings are also provided for each entry. These ratings consist of a number for the maturity group designations (000, 00, 0, 1, 2) followed by a decimal and another number, ranging from 0-9, which indicates a ranking within each maturity group. For example the entry MN0101 indicates a 0.1, making it an early group 0, while MN0901, with a 0.9 rating, is the latest group 0. The values for public entries are developed after observing them for several years in many locations. Relative maturity ratings for private entries in these tables were provided by their originators and were developed in a similar manner. Yield Because maturity is a very important attribute, entries are ordered in the tables according to their actual 2017 calendar date of maturity. Later maturing entries usually can be expected to have higher yields than earlier maturing types. If you wish to compare yields, do so only between entries with similar calendar dates of maturity, usually within 3 to 5 days. More reliable comparisons can be made using yields from several consecutive years. All yield determinations were made from replicated tests harvested with a plot combine. The yield information is presented as a percent of the mean of the test. The actual mean value is given at the bottom of each table. Values over 100 indicate the entry had a yield greater than the mean while those less than 100 have a yield less than the mean. LSD values associated with data in these tables are measures of variability within the trials. The LSD numbers beneath the yield columns indicate whether the difference between yields is due to genetics or other factors, such as environmental variation and measurement error. If yield differences between two entries equals or exceeds the LSD value, the higher-yielding entry probably was superior in yield. A difference less than the LSD value is probably due to environmental and/or measurement factors. The LSD values are given on the percent of mean data, not the actual yields. A 20% level of significance is used in all tables contained in this report. This means that there is a 20% probability that yield differences exceeding the stated LSD are not true yield differences. is a yield-limiting condition of soybeans grown in alkaline soils with high calcium carbonate or calcium sulfate ions present, making iron unavailable and causing soybean plants to turn yellow. This yellowing is visually scored on a 1 to 5 scale, where 1 indicates no yellowing and 5 indicates severe yellowing and necrosis that may even include death of the plant. Research has shown that for every unit increase in chlorosis, a 20% reduction in yield may occur. For example, a plot rated at 3 may yield 20% less than a plot given a rating of 2. All iron deficiency chlorosis (IDC) ratings in tables are from tests conducted on high lime (high ph) soils near Danvers, MN in Comparing chlorosis scores of entries allows you to estimate how well they perform relative to each other. Actual chlorosis ratings can vary depending on the specific site and year of test. Because of this high level of variability, it is usually very difficult to identify the best performing entries. Producers with a known history of IDC problems may find it more useful to avoid entries with the most severe (4 or 5) IDC ratings. Different organizations may use different scales or descriptions. A comparison of three different chlorosis rating systems follows. Numerical Protein and Oil 1-5 scale 1-9 scale 1 to 2 1 to 2.5 Tolerant (T) 2.1 to to 5 Moderately Tolerant (MT) 3.1 to to 7.5 Moderately Susceptible (MS) 4.1 to to 9 Susceptible (S) Protein and oil values were determined from mature seed using near infrared reflectance spectroscopy. The tabled values are for the 2017 season only. Protein and oil results are presented on a percent of the mean for each test. The actual mean values, expressed on 2

3 a 13% moisture basis, are given at the bottom of each table. Values over 100 indicate the protein and/or oil contents of the entry are greater than the mean value while those less than 100 have protein and/or oil contents less than the mean. Absolute values of protein and oil can vary from year to year. The following formula is used to adjust the protein and oil values to another moisture basis. the protein and oil values to another moisture basis. 100-desired moisture X protein or oil value 87 given in the table The value of a bushel of soybeans (APV) based on its oil and protein content can be calculated by: APV = 60 [Po (X) + Pm (Y)].44 Where: APV = Approximate value of a bushel of soybeans Po = soybean oil price (in $ per pound) Pm = price of 44% meal (in $ per pound)* X = oil content at 13% moisture (in decimals) Y = protein content at 13% moisture (in decimals) And: *price of meal $ / ton = $ / pound 2,000 The value of an acre of soybeans can be calculated by multiplying the APV by the yield in bushels per acre. Phytophthora Phytophthora root rot is a soil-borne disease that occurs in heavy wet soils. Infection generally occurs during germination. Phytophthora root rot can cause significant yield reductions if susceptible varieties are planted in poorly drained, infested fields. Variety selection is the best defense against this yield reducing pathogen. There are several known races of this fungus, so it is important to know which are present in a particular field. Genes can be incorporated into varieties to provide resistance to specific races of this disease. Genes for resistance to various races of Phytophthora root rot are listed in the following table. Genes for resistance to various races of Phytophthora root rot. Gene Races Rps1-a 1, 2, 10, 11, 13, 15-18, 24, 26, 27 Rps1-b 1, 3-9, 13-15, 17, 18, 21, 22 Rps1-c 1-3, 6-11, 13, 15, 17, 21, 23, 24, 26 Rps1-k 1-11, 13-15, 17, 18, 21, 22, 24, 26 Rps3-a 1-5, 8, 9, 11, 13, 14, 16, 18, 23, 25 Rps4 1-4, 10, 12-16, 18-21, 25 Rps6 1-4, 10, 12, 14-16, 18-21, 25 Some published information refers to Phytophthora tolerance or field resistance, which is not race-specific and should not be confused with race specific resistance as indicated in the above table. Reliable tests for tolerance have not yet been fully developed. Tables included in this report indicate which Phytophthora gene or genes is/ are present in each entry. This information was provided by the originator. A 1 is inserted next to the Phytophthora gene claimed where the claimed resistance was not verified by greenhouse evaluation. A NS indicates that a Phytophthora gene was not specified by the originator. Soybean Cyst Nematode Soybean Cyst Nematode (SCN) is a microscopic round worm that infects and reproduces in soybean roots. It was first identified in Minnesota in 1978 and is now known to occur in most Minnesota counties where soybeans are grown. Both the area of infestation and number of nematodes per unit of soil appear to be increasing. Several HG types (or races) of this pest are known to occur in Minnesota. When SCN numbers are high (> than 5,000 eggs/100 cc soil), significant yield losses can occur. Rotations to non-host crops and planting of resistant entries can assist in reducing nematode populations as well as reducing its impact on yield. Yield performance results of susceptible (S), moderately susceptible (MS), moderately resistant (MR) and resistant (R) entries planted in infested fields in northern, central and southern Minnesota are provided in Tables 12 to 14. The source for SCN resistance for each entry was provided by the originator. In Table 15 the resistance ratings were given based on a greenhouse bioassay with five replicates using an HG Type 0 (Race 3) SCN population. Each container (one plant) was inoculated with 4000 SCN eggs. After 30 days a female index (FI) was calculated for each entry using Lee 74 as the susceptible check. FI = (# of cysts on entry/# of cysts on Lee 74) x100. If the FI was < 10%, an entry was considered R. If the FI was 10 30%, it was considered MR. If the FI was 30-60%, it was considered MS and greater than 60% S. For proper management of fields with SCN, it is recommended that entries with an R rating be planted. If the SCN population numbers are relatively low (<1500) an entry with an MR rating might be considered.entries with S and MS ratings should not be considered for planting in fields where SCN is present. Some entries are rated as tolerant, however no data from the northern United States has verified the usefulness of tolerant entries in maintaining yield and reducing SCN numbers. Management information is available from the web site edu or from the Minnesota Soybean Research and Promotion Council, 151 St. Andrews Court, Suite 710, Mankato, MN 56001, , www. mnsoybean.org. White Mold White mold, also known as Sclerotinia stem rot, develops in infested fields when high relative humidity and moderate temperatures occur during soybean flowering. Planting less susceptible entries in wider row spacings or at lower populations is the most ef- 3

4 fective method of reducing the severity of white mold. Accurate ratings for resistance to white mold are difficult to obtain because both infection and disease development are dependent on weather conditions. Because of this variability, performance can change significantly among locations and years depending on the interaction of plant development, precipitation, relative humidity and temperature. White mold severity also tends to be greater if lodging occurs. Growers concerned about performance in the presence of white mold should select varieties that show consistently less white mold during several years of testing. MN0091 and MN0701 are public varieties with better than average resistance to white mold. Brown Stem Rot Brown stem rot (BSR) is a fungal disease that can cause yield losses in certain situations. The disease occurs most frequently when soybeans follow soybeans but can occur where soybeans are planted every other year. Resistant entries, or longer rotations, assist in the management of this disease. MN0304, MN0902CN, MN1302, Freeborn and IA2008R are available public varieties with resistance to BSR. Some information refers to tolerance or field resistance. Reliable tests for tolerance or field resistance have not yet been developed. Special-Purpose Entries There continues to be interest in producing soybeans with special characteristics important to specialty food product manufacturers, such as tofu, natto, miso and soy milk. Soybean scientists previously developed some of these special-purpose entries, which were general releases, but more recently entries have been released under exclusive or nonexclusive licenses to specific companies who then contract with growers for production.
