Registration of ‘S13‐2743C’ as a conventional soybean cultivar with high oil content, broad disease resistance, and high yield potential

Abstract

High demand for early‐maturing conventional (non‐genetically modified [GMO]) high‐oil soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] cultivars in the food and special niche markets led to the development and release of ‘S13‐2743C’ (Reg. no. CV‐538, PI 695097). It is a tall, early maturity group IV (relative maturity 4.1) non‐GMO soybean developed and released by the University of Missouri–Fisher Delta Research Center soybean breeding program. This early maturing, indeterminate type cultivar is desired by growers in the southern United States to plant along with later maturity groups to allow flexibility during the harvest season. S13‐2743C has high oil content (238.4 g kg−1) and a broad disease resistance package, including resistance to soybean cyst nematode race 3, phytophthora root rot, stem canker, sudden death syndrome, and frogeye leaf spot. It has white flowers, grey pubescence, and brown pod walls. Seeds have buff hila and intermediate luster. S13‐2743C was tested in 103 environments across eight states and showed high yield potential in Missouri and other southern states, including Arkansas, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, and Tennessee.

Breeding for disease resistance in soybean: a global perspective

“…'Munasqa RR' carried superior resistance to M. phaseolina. In addition, the University of Missouri-Fisher Delta Research Center has released varieties showing superior resistance to charcoal rot (Chen et al 2020(Chen et al , 2021b. Based on field research studies conducted over the last several years, over 2,000 soybean genotypes have been screened for CR resistance, and of these genotypes, approximately 25 have been identified as having moderate resistance against charcoal rot (Mengistu et al 2007(Mengistu et al , 2011(Mengistu et al , 2013.…”

Registration of ‘S16‐14801C’: A high‐yielding determinate maturity group V soybean cultivar with multiple disease resistance, salt tolerance, and broad adaptation

“…The PYTs and AYTs included tests only in Missouri, whereas the COOP consisted of tests in Arkansas, Louisiana, Missouri, Mississippi, Tennessee, and Virginia conducted in partnership with public institutions and private entities in each state. The COOP was designed to minimize uncontrolled data noise and inconsistency caused by off‐target dicamba (3,6‐dichloro‐2‐methoxybenzoic acid) exposure in southern Missouri and to increase the statistical power in identifying superior genotypes with desired yield stability and adaptability across multiple environments (Chen, Shannon, Scaboo, et al., 2020; Chen et al., 2021b, 2021c). Field plots consisted of four rows that were 3.66 m long and 0.76 m wide.…”

Registration of ‘S16‐3747GT’: A high‐yielding determinate maturity group V soybean cultivar with broad biotic and abiotic stressors tolerance

“…In the face of the growing demand for high‐yielding soybean cultivars in the southern United States, the University of Missouri – Fisher Delta Research, Extension, and Education Center (MU‐FDREEC) soybean breeding program has traditionally developed and released conventional and herbicide‐tolerant cultivars with elevated yielding potential, wide adaptability, unique seed composition, and biotic and abiotic tolerance traits (Chen, Shannon, Ali, et al., 2020; Chen, Shannon, Crisel, et al., 2020; Chen, Shannon, Scaboo, et al., 2020; Chen et al., 2021a, 2021b, 2021c; Shannon et al., 2019). ‘S16‐3747GT’ (Reg.…”
