Genetic diversity in soybean genotypes with resistance to Heterodera glycines
The purpose of this study was to analyze the genetic diversity among soybean genotypes inoculated with Heterodera glycines race 3. The experiments were conducted in a greenhouse. In two performance tests of morphological characteristics and resistance to the pathogen, 27 soybean genotypes were assessed. The coefficient of genotypic determination was estimated by the method of analysis of variance and the genetic diversity analyzed based on dendrograms and optimization method. The estimated coefficients of determination indicated a predominantly genetic origin of the genotypic differences in the traits. The genetic variability was maintained in the superior genotypes, which can be used in breeding programs for resistance to soybean cyst nematode.
