Оценка сортообразцов сои на зеленый горошек и проростки
Abstract
A trial was carried out during 2008-2010 years with the aim to evaluate 10 varieties of vegetable soja and the most promising ones were selected. The varieties suitable for soybean sprout production have small-sized seeds. Staroukrainskaya and Kitayskaya sakharhaya varieties are the most suitable for sprout production and they are distinguished by a high yield of dry seeds per plant (28.0-30.4 g). Thousand-seed weight is 100-130 g. The varieties recommended for green pods and beans have fewer soybeans per plant, but they are larger in size. In the conditions of Ukrainian Forest-Steppe the varieties IR-398 and IR-1030 are the most promising for the production of green soybeans and Edamame peas. Their seed yield is 3.5-3.6 t/ha and thousand-seed weight is more than 300 g.
