Brief Project Summary:

The researchers will evaluate the effects of soil water logging and drought stress on soybean yield and the deposition of protein, oil and carbohydrates in soybean seed. The researchers will also determine how seed carbohydrates are affected by maturity, environmental conditions during seed fill and post-harvest storage conditions. In addition, the researchers will evaluate the impact that modern breeding practices have had on seed quality traits.
