The analysis of variance was performed and all the germplasm lines significantly differed for the characters viz., Percentage of germination, Seedling vigour index-I, Field emergence percent, Seedling vigour index-II, Electrical conductivity, and Moisture percentage. The correlation and variability studies were done for quality parameters in seed for eighty-four germplasm lines and results obtained were noted with high heritability and genetic advance along with large variability for Seedling vigor index-I, Seedling vigor index-II and electrical conductivity of seed leachates. The percentage of germination exhibited positive correlation with Seedling vigor index I and II along with field emergence and negative correlation with electrical conductivity. Genotypes GP-186, ASB-135, GP-142, GP-104, GP-145, ASB-114, ASB-15, ASB-104, GP-174, ASB-101, ASB-139, Aisb-50, Basara, Js-335 and Js-93-05 recorded superior seed quality parameters.</Abstract> <AbstractLanguage>English</AbstractLanguage> <Keywords>correlation coefficients, germination, heritability, seed quality</Keywords> <URLs> <Abstract>https://emergentresearch.org/ubijournal-v1copy/journals/abstract.php?article_id=14875&title=Studies on variability parameters and correlations in Soybean (Glycine max) germplasm for seed quality characters</Abstract> </URLs> <References> <ReferencesarticleTitle>References</ReferencesarticleTitle> <ReferencesfirstPage>16</ReferencesfirstPage> <ReferenceslastPage>19</ReferenceslastPage> <References/> </References> </Journal> </Article> </ArticleSet>
