Abstract:

Yield is one of the most important objects for soybean breeders. In recent years, soybean yield has been increasing obviously in the world. Super high-yielding cultivars of soybean constantly emerged and the records of high yield was refreshed time after time. Outlines on the yield potential research and the records of high yield and soybean breeding for high yield in foreign countries and China was summarized. The authors analyzed the gateway and strategy of soybean breeding for high yield and pointed out that the integration between molecular breeding and transgenic technique would be correct direction for soybean breeding in the future .
