Abstract excerpt
KEY MESSAGE: Using genome-wide association studies, 39 SNP markers likely tagging 21 different loci for carbon isotope ratio (δ (13) C) were identified in soybean. Water deficit stress is a major factor limiting soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] yield. Soybean genotypes with improved water use efficiency (WUE) may be used to develop cultivars with increased yield under drought. A collection of 373 diverse soybean...
