Forage and dry matter yield and yield components at one vegetative stage (V5) and two reproductive stages (R2, and R4) and seed yield was determined in all soybean genotypes. The experiments showed that the harvest stages had significant effects on forage and dry matter yield, and R4 reproductive stage had the highest forage and dry matter yield. Dry matter partitioning of soybean plant parts was greatly affected by harvest stages, while the genotypes had little effect on dry matter partitioning of soybean plant parts. There were statistically significant differences between soybean genotypes in seed yield, but the differences were small. The correlations between forage and dry matter yield and seed yield were not statistically significant.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessGlycine maxDry matter yieldProtein yieldHarvest stagesForage qualityScience & technologyLife sciences & biomedicineAgriculture, dairy & animal scienceAgriculture, multidisciplinaryAgricultureArticle00040966810002639740263
