3 Soybean Variety Performance Trials 8 Results Robert G Hall, Extension agronomist - crops/manager - crop testing Kevin K Kirby, Agricultural research manager crop testing Jesse Hall, Agricultural research manager crop testing Soybean production is greatly affected by variety selection This circular reports the agronomic performance of entries in the 8 South Dakota performance trials for glyphosate-resistant and conventional or non-glyphosate-resistant soybean varieties Major factors in variety selection include yield, maturity, lodging resistance, and Phytophthora root rot resistance General Soybean varieties are classified according to maturity groups that in turn are adapted to maturity zones Maturity zones are based on day length and therefore affected by latitude The very early maturity group- varieties are best suited to Canada and bordering regions of the US, while maturity group-, group- I, and group-ii varieties are suited to South Dakota The later groups III-VIII are suited to Iowa, Nebraska, and south to Texas These soybean trial results are reported according to the prevalent maturity zones in South Dakota (see map) The glyphosate-resistant soybean variety trials were conducted by the following test zones and locations: Northern test zone: Maturity groups- and -I at South Shore and Warner; Central test zone: Maturity groups-, -I, and II at Brookings and Bancroft; Southern test zone: Maturity groups-i and -II at Beresford and Geddes The conventional non-glyphosate-resistant soybean variety trials are conducted at the following SDSU affiliated research farms: Northeast Research Farm, South Shore- Maturity groups- and -I; SDSU Plant Science Farm, Brookings- Maturity groups-, -I, and II; and the Southeast SD Agricultural Experiment Station, Beresford- Maturity groups-i and II There are transition areas where varieties of two maturity groups may perform similarly In such cases rainfall and or elevation may moderate the affect of latitude on maturity In most cases, an earlier maturity group may be seeded in a zone suited to a later maturity group This is only practical if seeding is delayed, or if reseeding following hail, or if double cropping Phytophthora root rot (PRR) is an important soybean disease in South Dakota and is often controlled or managed with the use of resistant varieties Resistance to Phytophthora root rot is fungus-race specific Thus, resistance to one PRR race does not always impart resistance to other races Knowledge of the prevalent PRR races in your area is important If you suspect you have a PRR problem then use of varieties with a wide range of rot resistance is strongly suggested (see discussion of Phytophthora under General Test procedures) An alternative method of control is the use of tolerant varieties Tolerant varieties are not resistant to PRR in the seedling stage Thus, a PRR fungicide must be applied to protect them Currently, we do not evaluate variety field tolerance; therefore, field tolerance ratings are not available Certified seed is the best source of seed and the only way to be assured of the genetic purity of the variety seeded In addition, inoculation of seed with the appropriate nitrogen-fixing bacterium is a good practice Always inoculate if seeding soybeans in soils not previously cropped to soybeans On older soybean soils there is no guarantee that beneficial bacteria will be present to naturally inoculate planted seed Therefore, inoculation of seed at Warner South Shore yale brookings armour beresford Map of Soybean Maturity Zones and Trial Site Locations

4 planting is an inexpensive means of increasing the percentage of plants that will fix nitrogen in the current crop year Yield Yields are obtained from the South Dakota Crop Performance Testing Program (CPT) Current-year yields are included for each entry tested along with -year averages where varieties have been tested for two years Yield test averages and least significant difference (LSD) values are rounded-off to the nearest bushel and printed at the bottom of each yield column The LSD value can be used to determine if varieties differ in yield per acre For example, assume variety A averages bu, B averages bu, and the calculated LSD value is bu The average difference between varieties A and B is bu (-=) Since the average difference of bu is greater than the test LSD value of bu, variety A ( bu) is significantly higher in yield than for B ( bu) In contrast, if variety A averages 8 bu and B averages bu, the average difference would be bu (8-=) In this case, both varieties would have a similar yield average because their difference of bu is less than the test LSD value of bu Use LSD values to identify the best-yielding varieties The LSD value at the bottom of each yield column is used to calculate a minimum top yield value For example, if the highest column yield value is bu, subtract the LSD value of bu to obtain an intermediate value of bu ( = ) The minimum top yield value has to be greater than this intermediate value of bu and since the yield values are rounded to the nearest bushel it must be at least bu Thus, varieties with an average of bu or higher are included in the top-yield group Note: Entries tested for two years may also have a top yield group value in the 8 yield column NOTE: Each company selects the appropriate maturity group trial (maturity group-, -I, or -II trial) and locations for their entries Companies generally have one or more maturity group checks for their varieties There are, however, no standard regional or national check varieties for maturity A late group-i variety from one company may be similar in maturity to an early group-i, or an early group-ii variety from another company because they use different check varieties for maturity Therefore, this testing program does not guarantee that entries are placed in the appropriate maturity group trial Borderline entries with maturity ratings at or near the arbitrary breaks between the late group- s and early group-i s and between the late group-i s and early-group-ii s may crossover in some test trials It is suggested you note the reported maturity rating of every entry you are considering Since all entries at a location are seeded the same day, one can compare the relative difference in days to maturity among varieties tested at that location Use caution when comparing the maturity rating of a variety over many locations Variations in soil moisture and temperature often differ between locations resulting in some maturity variations over locations The efforts of D Doyle, SDSU Agronomy Farm; A Heuer, NE Research Farm, South Shore; and R Berg and staff, SE Research Farm, Beresford in obtaining the data are gratefully acknowledged Also, the assistance and cooperation of our farmer co-operators: Allen and Inel Ryckman, Warner, SD; Curtis Sybesma, Geddes, SD; and Erland Weerts, Bancroft, SD is gratefully acknowledged Protein and Oil Content The 8 protein and oil values (adjusted to a % moisture) were determined using a calibrated FOSS TECATOR Model Infratec 9 Grain Analyzer Three replicates of every variety in each trial were tested Samples of known protein and oil were tested by the SDSU Agricultural Experiment Station Biochemistry Laboratory and were used to calibrate the analyzer Weather and Seasonal Precipitation Seasonal rainfall and its distribution and average temperatures at weather reporting stations nearest each test trial are reported in Table A for the period April to September Seasonal precipitation totals were above average at Aberdeen ( ) and Mitchell ( ); near average at South Shore (- ), Huron ( ), and Centerville (Beresford-SE Farm ); and below average at Brookings (- ) The greatest moisture deficit of -8 from June through August was at Brookings Station temperatures varied from about to -9o below average in April, May, and June; and from -o F in July and August Effects of the cool spring in May that delayed planting or inhibited early seedling growth at some of the locations can be seen in table A General Test Procedures These procedures apply to both the glyphosate-resistant and conventional non-glyphosate-resistant soybean trials except for the chemical weed control imposed Trial locations, soil types, tillage methods, previous crops, pesticide usage, and seeding dates are indicated in table B Test Procedures: A row spacing of inches was used at all locations The seeding rate was, seeds per acre for all varieties and locations Test plots consist of -row plots, feet long, with three replications at all locations Soybean inoculation was accomplished by applying Nitragin brand Soybean Soil Implant down the seed tube, according to label instructions and rates, during seeding Seeding at all locations was accomplished using a Monosem precision row crop planter The center two rows of each plot were harvested for yield Yield: Plots were harvested at % seed moisture or less Yields were calculated on a % moisture content basis and expressed in bushels per acre Harvest was accomplished using a Massey Ferguson 8XP small plot combine Reporting variety maturity: Variety maturity is reported as Days to maturity or DTM Entries are mature when 9% of the pods have turned brown Each maturity value is obtained by determining the average number of days from seeding to maturity for two replicates and expressing as DTM at each location Table DTM values are an average of four replicates (two for each location) unless data is at a location; and in such cases the DTM average is based on two replications Lodging Score: Scores at maturity are based on the erectness of the main stem of plants within each variety = all plants erect, = slight lodging, = some lodging at a o-angle, = severe lodging, and = all plants flat

5 Phytophthora Root Rot (PRR): The gene resistance of each variety to PRR is supplied by each seed company (proprietary entries) or by the USDA (Uniform Soybean Tests, Northern States, public entries) A key for each type of PRR gene and the race resistance it imparts to a variety is given in Table C Specific race resistance to PRR as reported by seed company, can be determined by noting the PRR gene in the variety index table D (glyphosate-resistant) and and referencing the gene back to table C to find the range of race resistance Currently, races -, -, and - are the most common races in South Dakota GLYPHOSATE-RESISTANT SOYBEAN VARIETY TRIAL RESULTS Note: Yield averages are reported -yr (-8) or 8 NORTHERN TEST ZONE SOUTH SHORE- Conventional tillage, Northeast Research Farm WARNER- Minimum-tillage, Allen & Inel Ryckman Farm (farm cooperators) South Shore, Group- (Tables a & b): The two-year and 8 test-yield averages were and bushels per acre, respectively (Table a) Varieties had to average and bushels or higher to be in the top yield group for two years and for 8, respectively Variety yield differences among the two-year averages were not significant (NS);
