Fig. 1. Timeline of life cycle phases as predicted by the CROPGRO model for MG 7 soybean sown 12 June 1984 at Gainesville, FL (29°40' N lat). Reprinted from Boote et al. (1998a) with permission.

Fig. 2. Simulated soybean seed yield response to varying the filling period duration (beginning seed, R5, to physiological maturity) at Ames, IA, for 1980–1996 rainfed weather. Treatments include standard N mobilization and 20% slower N mobilization (both with 11 adequate rainfall years) and standard N mobilization (with 6 drought-prone years). Horizontal bar represents feasible genetic range for filling period duration. Reprinted from Boote et al. (2001) with permission.

Fig. 3. Simulated soybean seed harvest index in response to varying the filling period duration (beginning seed, R5, to physiological maturity) at Ames, IA, for 1980–1996 rainfed weather. Treatments include standard N mobilization and 20% slower N mobilization (both with 11 adequate rainfall years) and standard N mobilization (with 6 drought-prone years). Horizontal bar represents feasible genetic range for filling period duration. Reprinted from Boote et al. (2001) with permission.

Fig. 4. Simulated soybean yield as a function of variation in leaf Pmax, attributed to inherent rate (no change in SLW), or attributed (coupled) only to SLW. Simulated over 17 rainfed seasons at Ames, IA. Horizontal bar represents feasible genetic range for Pmax about the mean of reported literature values.

Fig. 7. Simulated soybean yield and SD for yield as affected by rate of root depth progression (cm PTD-1), averaged over 17 rainfed seasons at Ames, IA. Horizontal bar represents feasible genetic range for rate of root depth progression about the default reference point.

Fig. 8. Simulated soybean yield response to varying the filling period duration (beginning seed, R5, to physiological maturity) at Ames, IA, for 1980–1996 rainfed weather under two scenarios (Year 1958: 315 CO2 µmol mol-1, 0.91-m row spacing, 25 plants m-2; Year 2000: 370 CO2 µmol mol-1, 0.18-m row spacing, 30 plants m-2).
