<p>The invention overcomes the deficiencies of the art by providing methods for breeding soybean plants containing genomic regions associated with the pubescence alleles, T and Td, associated with increased grain yield. In addition, the invention provides the locus for Td. Moreover, the invention includes germplasm and the use of germplasm containing genomic regions conferring increased yield for introgression into elite germplasm in a breeding program. Moreover, the invention provides methods of purifying soybean breeding lines for such traits as flower color and pubescence color at early stages, such as seed. The invention also provides derivatives, and plant parts of these plants and uses thereof.</p> |
