Abstract

Preliminary yield trail of 7 selected soybean lines (line numbers 2035, 2037, 2125, 2156, 2160, 2180 and 2192) obtained from crosses between mutants and Doi Kham variety and one line (line number 58608) obtained from gamma irradiated Doi Kham along with four check varieties (Doi Kham, S.J.4, S.J. 5 and CM.60) was carried out in order to select for short stature, early maturity and high yielding mutant. Line numbers 2156, 58608, 2160 and 2180 expressed short stature and early maturity. Their heights at maturity time were shorter that the original Doi Kham for 13, 15, 17 and 22 cm respectively, and their yields were 13, 11, 11 and 13 days earlier than Doi Kham, respectively. Their yields were similar to Doi Kham. These four lines will be further tested at different locations in the dry and rainy seasons. The best line will be selected and used as a variety.
