2 Outline Why variety testing is important Site selection and experimental design Data collection Traits, how to score Data analysis IP protection Soybean diseases Plant breeding
3 University of Illinois Morrow Plots Oldest Experimental Field in the USA "The wealth of Illinois is in her soil, and her strength lies in its intelligent development." -Andrew Sloan Draper, President, University of Illinois,
4 Reasons for yield and agronomic testing Testing of experimental lines in breeding programs to identify those that should be advanced and released. Testing released varieties to identify those best adapted to field environments. Testing agronomic methods and inputs to identify ways to increase profitability.

10 Setting up variety tests Sites need to be predictive of farmer s fields. Field sites should be productive. Results from unproductive fields often do not differentiate varieties as all varieties will have similar poor performance. Fields should be as uniform as possible. Uniform for soil type and fertility As little slope as possible. Consistent lighting (no shade)
11 Need to use an appropriate experimental design Experimental design makes it possible to know if differences observed are meaningful. In experiments we: Randomize Gives all treatments an equal chance of receiving a treatment. Assures unbiased estimates of treatment means and experimental error. Replicate Makes it possible to estimate an experimental error and a more precise measure of treatment effects.
12 0.5 m Plot size Plots in the experiment will be 5 meters x 2 meters 4 rows wide 5 meters long 1 meter between ranges 0.5 meter row spacing 5 cm between plants 1 meter alley between ranges of plots Harvest middle 2 rows 5 m 1 m
13 1 m 0.5 m 5 m 1 m
14 Arrange the field so replications are as square as possible Each range of plots is 6 m (5 m plot and 1 m alley). Individual plots are 2 m wide. Assuming 30 varieties, arrange replications 10 plots wide (20 meters) and 3 ranges deep (18 meters). Surround field with fill plots Rep 1 Rep Rep
15 Arrange reps so field differences are across reps Maximize the differences in slope, soil type and fertility across reps. Differences between reps is removed by the rep effect in the analysis Differences within reps will be part of the error effect which reduces the ability to show genotypes are significantly different. Rep 1 Rep 2 Rep 3 Slope
16 Data collection Need to consider what traits are important. Just because you can measure or count it, doesn t mean that you need to score it. What is the focus of the project? Identify soybean varieties that are adapted and high yielding in Malawi. Need to identify what traits need to be measured to determine this. Seeds/pod? Pods/plant? Biomass? Weight of nodules? Focus on measure a few traits well instead of many poorly.
17 Data collection Plant emergence Flower color during flowering Pubescence color at maturity Flowering date Maturity date Plant lodging Plant height Seed yield Plant shattering 100 seed weight
18 Plant emergence Why score? Determine plant stands to identify if seed vigor influences yield When score? After emergence is completed Count the number of plants in the two middle rows
19 Flower color Why score? Quality control When score? At flowering Flowers are either purple or white in soybean varieties (plots can be mixed).
20 Pubescence color Why score? Quality control When score? At maturity Score as grey or tawny (plants can be light tawny but this is difficult to score) (plots can be mixed)
21 Date of R1 (First open flower) Why score? Determine adaptation When score? At flowering Score the date when 50% of the plants in a plot have at least 1 open flower Score the plots about every three days Need to push the canopy over to see flowers
22 Date of R8 (Pod maturity) Why score? Determine adaptation When score? At maturity Score the date when 85% of the pods in a plot have turned to their mature color Score the plots about every three days Be sure to focus on pod color, not stem color
23 Maturity scoring can be obscured by green stem disorder Normal maturity Green stem disorder
24 Lodging Why score? Measure the average of how upright the plants are in the plot When score? At maturity Score plots on a 1-5 scale (use 0.5 increments) Score when the plots are mature
25 Lodging What scores would you give these plots?
26 Plant height Why score? Measure adaptability of varieties When score? At maturity Measure the height of plants (in cm) from the soil surface to the top node of plants Score when the plots are rated mature cm
27 Seed yield Why score? Yield is critical for variety selection When score? After maturity and before shattering Harvest the middle 2 rows of the 4-row plots Thresh and winnow the grain Measure the weight of grain at least 5 days after harvest from each plot
28 Plant shattering Why score? Farmers need to know how much varieties shatter. When score? 2 weeks after maturity Rate each plot on a 1 to 5 scale with 1=no shattering and 5=100% of the pods shattered
29 100 seed weight Why score? Seed size is important to growers and processors When score? After seeds are dry Count and weigh 100 seed from each plot
30 Data analysis Analyses will be done across environments Collaborators will submit data from each plot to project organizers (Diers, Chigeza, Klauser). The data from each environment and across environments will be subjected to analysis of variance so statistics such as least significant differences can be calculated. GxE analyses will be conducted to identify environments that varieties are similarly adapted. Data will be placed in a database that is being developed by the Syngenta Foundation

32 IP protection It is critical to protect the intellectual property of varieties in the tests. Breeders have large investments in variety development that should not be compromised. As an inbred crop, soybean can easily be stolen and propagated. If this happens, soybean developers may not bring new germplasm into Malawi.
33 IP protection Variety names will be coded in the field and names will not be provided until the test is completed. Talk about the importance of IP protection at field days. Have attendees at field days sign an agreement that they will respect IP and not steal seed.
