Table 2 Descriptive statistics (mean, SD, maximum and minimum value, CV%), heritability and F-value of three seed germination-related traits (GR, SL & FW) measured on LM6 and ZM6 RIL populations under natural and artificial aging treatments

From: Whole-genome mapping identified novel “QTL hotspots regions” for seed storability in soybean (Glycine max L.)

  1. SD (standard deviation); CV (coefficient of variation); GR (germination rate), SL (seedling length) and FW (fresh weight); rGR (relative germination rate), rSL (relative seedling length) and rFW (relative fresh weight). Artificial aging includes both treatment and relative trait values, whereas natural aging includes only treatment trait value (no control was used in natural aging). * &** represent significance at 5 and 1% probability levels, respectively
