1 Notes: aRoot gall rating scale from 1 to 10 where 0 = no galling and 10=100% root system with severe galling; bMeans within columns for each location with the same letter do not differ significantly (p ≤ 0.05) by LSD.

Figure 1:

Effects of Meloidogyne incognita on three yield parameters; (A) dried plant weight in grams; (B) Total weight of harvested edamame pods in grams; and (C) Total fresh seed weight in grams on edamame cultivar, ‘8080’, in microplots from two locations. Plants were harvested at reproductive stage 6 (R6). Error bars represent standard error of the mean for each treatment. Differences in letters indicate significantly different values as determined by LSD at p ≤ 0.05.

Figure 2:

Effects of Heterodera glycines on five edamame yield parameters; (A) total weight of dried plant mass; (B) average number of harvested pods per plant; (C) the number of seeds in 30 grams; (D) total weight of pods in grams; and (E) total fresh bean weight in grams in microplots from two locations. Edamame plants were harvested at reproductive stage 6 (R6). Error bars represent standard error of the mean for each treatment. Differences in letters indicate significantly different values determined by LSD at p ≤ 0.05.

Figure 3:

Average gall rating of Meloidogyne incognita on 22 different edamame breeding lines 45 days after inoculation. Gall ratings were based on a 1-10 scale (Barker, 1982). Each bar represents an average of three trials with five replications in each trial. Edamame lines with different letters listed above bars indicate significant differences using LSD analysis, p ≤ 0.05.

Figure 4:

Average number of Meloidogyne incognita eggs per gram of dry root in 22 different edamame breeding lines 45 days after inoculation. Each bar in trial 1 (A), 2 (B), and 3 (C) represent an average of five replications. Edamame lines with different letters above the bar indicate significant difference as determined by LSD analysis, p ≤ 0.05.

Figure 5:

Average number of Heterodera glycines cysts from soil and roots of 22 edamame breeding lines 30 days after inoculation. Each bar represents the average of two trials with five replications in each trial. Different letters above bars indicate LSD significant levels, p ≤ 0.05.
