Abstract

This research was carried out to determine the yield and agronomic characteristics of some soybean genotypes under main crop conditions in the Eastern Mediterranean Transition Zone in the years 2021-2022. In the research, 13 varieties (Adel, AP-3773, Arısoy, Asya, Atakişi, Atlas-3616, J-112, Lider, Planet, Racer, Sonya, Winchester, Yemsoy) 1 genotype (Yeniköy-9) were used. The experiment was conducted in a randomized block design with three replications. It was determined that the average plant height varied between 64.05 cm (J-112) and 114.25 cm (Winchester). The lowest average first pods height (1.74 cm) was obtained from J-112 variety while the highest value (13.69 cm) was obtained from Yemsoy variety. The lowest number of branches per plant values i.e. 1.83 no. plant-1 and 2.13 no. plant-1 were recorded from J-112 and Planet variety respectively. In the experiment, the number of pods per plant varied between 72.20 pods plant-1 (Arısoy) to 105.61 pods plant-1 (AP-3773). However, the average weight of 100 seeds varied between 15.07 g (Asya) to 22.10 g (Lider). The lowest average protein content (33.58%) was obtained from Yemsoy variety while the highest value (41.50%) was obtained from J-112 variety. It was determined that the average seed yield varied between 379.74 kg da-1 (Arısoy) and 580.73 kg da-1 (Lider). According to the data obtained as a result of the experiment, Lider variety was come front with the highest seed yield (580.73 kg da-1) and, J-112 variety had the high protein content with 41.50%, Planet (21.96 g) and Yeniköy-9 (20.87 g) varieties had the highest 100 seed weight. According to production goals, one of this superior varieties may be prefer to grow in the Eastern Mediterranean Transition Zone.
