Overview

Field evaluation reveals that seaweed extract reduces pod shattering and increases yield in soybean varieties, indicating a sustainable method to enhance crop production.

Key Points

To evaluate the efficacy of the Ascophyllum nodosum extract Sealicit in reducing pod shattering and increasing seed yields across shatter-susceptible and shatter-resistant soybean cultivars.
Conducted agricultural field trials in Canada and Brazil across pod shatter-susceptible (UFUS 6901) and shatter-resistant (UFUS 7415) soybean varieties.
Applied three concentrations of the biostimulant Sealicit to measure pod firmness, seed yield, and relative expression levels of dehiscence-related genes GmPDH1.1 and GmSHAT1–5.
Application of Sealicit significantly reduced pod shattering in the shatter-susceptible variety, which coincided with the deregulation of GmPDH1.1 and GmSHAT1–5 expression and higher seed weight per pod.
Treatment in the shatter-resistant variety did not significantly alter inherent pod firmness but produced higher overall seed yield increases at harvest.
