Abstract: | Originating as an F4-derived line in the cross LN81-1029 × Asgrow A2943 and released in 1995, this early, indeterminate, maturity group III soyabean (Glycine max) variety is noted for its resistance to Phytophthora sojae race 1 and its higher yield compared with varieties of similar maturity. Compared with Resnik, Iroquois has averaged 3% higher in seed yield and 7.5 cm greater in plant height; it is similar to Resnik in lodging, seed weight, seed quality scores and seed protein and oil concentrations. Iroquois is best adapted to latitudes of 40 to 42°N |
