Association mapping for water use efficiency in soybean identifies previously reported and novel loci and permits genomic prediction by Siva K. Chamarthi, Siva K. Chamarthi, Larry C. Purcell, Felix B. Fritschi, Jeffery D. Ray, James R. Smith, Avjinder S. Kaler, C. Andy King, Jason D. Gillman

“…However, drought stress is the most significant factor that decreases soybean yield, and more than 90% of US soybean acreage is dependent on rainfall. Water use efficiency (WUE) is positively correlated with the carbon isotopic ratio 13C/12C (C13 ratio) and selecting soybean varieties for high C13 ratio may enhance WUE and help improve tolerance to drought. …”
