Table 4. Analysis of variance (F and P values) of the effects of year (Y), cultivar (Cv), row-type (RT, either single- or twin-rows), and seeding rate (SR) on the concentrations of seed sugars (sucrose, raffinose, stachyose, glucose, and fructose, mg g-1) and boron (B, mg kg-1), phosphorus (P, g kg-1), and iron (Fe, mg kg-1) in soybean cultivars 94M80 and GP-533 in Beulah fine sandy loam soil. a .
