Asian soybean rust (ASR) is the main soybean disease in Brazil. Therefore, the objective of this work was to evaluate FAS in different sowing dates and soybean cultivars in the lowland rice-growing region of brazil. The experiment was conducted in the 2014/2015 agricultural year at the IRGA Rice Experiment Station. The cultivars analyzed were NS4823RR (superearly-maturing), TECIRGA6070RR (early-maturing) and CD2019RR (late-maturing). The sowing dates were October 4, November 19 and December 12, 2014. The analyzed variables were Area Under the Soybean Asian Rust Progress Curve (AACPFAS); Relative Area Under the Soybean Asian Rust Progress Curve (AACPFASRe) and grain yield. The experimental design was in randomized blocks in subdivided plots with three replications. All data were submitted to analysis of variance in a factorial scheme and variables that demonstrated significance by F-test (p <0.05) were submitted to the comparison of means by Duncan's test at 5% of error probability. Non-linear regression analysis was performed, adjusting mean disease severity values over time by testing the Exponential, Monomolecular, Logistic and
Flooding is a frequent environmental stress that reduces soybean (Glycine max) growth and grain yield in many producing areas in the world, such as, e.g., in the United States, Southeast Asia and Southern Brazil. In these regions, soybean is frequently cultivated in lowland areas by rotating with rice (Oryza sativa), which provides numerous technical, economic and environmental benefits. Given these realities, this work aimed to characterize physiological responses, identify genes differentially expressed under flooding stress in Brazilian soybean genotypes with contrasting flooding tolerance, and select SNPs with potential use for marker-assisted selection. Soybean cultivars TECIRGA 6070 (flooding tolerant) and FUNDACEP 62 (flooding sensitive) were grown up to the V6 growth stage and then flooding stress was imposed. Total RNA was extracted from leaves 24 h after the stress was imposed and sequenced. In total, 421 induced and 291 repressed genes were identified in both genotypes. TECIRGA 6070 presented 284 and 460 genes up- and down-regulated, respectively, under flooding conditions. Of those, 100 and 148 genes were exclusively up- and down-regulated, respectively, in the tolerant genotype. Based on the RNA sequencing data, SNPs in differentially expressed genes in response to flooding stress were identified. Finally, 38 SNPs, located in genes with functional annotation for response to abiotic stresses, were found in TECIRGA 6070 and absent in FUNDACEP 62. To validate them, 22 SNPs were selected for designing KASP assays that were used to genotype a panel of 11 contrasting genotypes with known phenotypes. In addition, the phenotypic and grain yield impacts were analyzed in four field experiments using a panel of 166 Brazilian soybean genotypes. Five SNPs possibly related to flooding tolerance in Brazilian soybean genotypes were identified. The information generated from this research will be useful to develop soybean genotypes adapted to poorly drained soils or areas subject to flooding.
The objective was to study the adaptability and stability of soybean cultivars in the lowland production system under different conditions in a subtropical environment. Fourteen soybean cultivars were evaluated in five locations and three growing seasons in Rio Grande do Sul State, Brazil. Three sowing dates were evaluated in each location and growing season and named as: early, recommended for high yield and recommended to minimize the risk of water deficiency. The experiment was carried out in a randomized complete block design, with three replicates. Yield data was submitted to analysis of variance, and the Eberhart and Russel method was used to study its adaptability and stability. In general, the cultivars that showed adaptability and stability to the three sowing dates showed MG between 5.6 to 6.4 and the type of indeterminate growth. The cultivars A 6411 RG, TEC 5936 IPRO and TECIRGA 6070 RR combined wide adaptability and stability, the cultivars Fundacep 65 RR and 6869 RSF RR presented high yield and stability of production and are recommended for lowland environments.
