Abstract excerpt
Plant height (PH) and main stem node number (MSN) are core agronomic traits that jointly shape soybean plant architecture and determine yield potential. Here, a natural population of 264 soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.) accessions was phenotyped for PH and MSN across two environments to dissect their genetic basis. Genome-wide association study (GWAS) revealed that both traits are quantitatively inherited with...
