Statistics of 100-pod fresh weight (PFW), 100-seed fresh weight (SFW), 100-seed dry weight (SDW) and moisture content of fresh seeds (MCFS) for the 133 soybean landraces
| Traits | Mean ± SD | Range | FaG | FaE | FaGxE | Heritabilityb(%) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| PFW(g) | 118.2 ± 39.2 | 35.9–332.1 | 84.7*** | 98.6*** | 2.9*** | 96.7 |

aFG, FE, and FGxE represent the F value for genotypic, environmental effects and genotype × environment interaction, respectively
bEntry mean-based heritability: H2 = σ2 g/[σ2 g + σ2 ge/n + σ2 ε/(rn)], where σ2g is the genotypic variance, σ2ge is the genotype by environment interaction variance, σ2ε is the error variance, n is the number of environments, r is the number of replications
