Abstract: 【Objective】 Soybean [Glycine mar (L.) Merr.] pod-seed trait is one of the most important traits related with yields. In this paper, the relationship between soybean pod-seed traits and yields was studied, the QTLs controlling soybean pod-seed traits were mapped, and the soybean pod-seed trait molecular genetic mechanism was revealed. 【Method】Based on three years and two environments data, a recombinant line population of 474 F2:8:11 lines from a cross of Jindou 23 and ZDD2315 was used for analyzing and mapping QTLs of soybean pod-seed related traits. 【Result】The results of the molecular genetic analysis indicated that the field traits have a significant positive correlation or extreme significant positive correlation with 100-grain-weight, grain length, single grain weight, two-grain pod and three-grain pod. According to three years and two environments data, the authors mapped six QTLs of field traits related, four QTLs of 100-grain-weight, ten QTLs of single line grain weight, two QTLs of grain width, five QTLs of grain length, seven QTLs of one-grain pod, five two-grain pod, seven QTLs of three-grain pod and five QTLs of four-grain pod. 【Conclusion】The identification of consistent QTLs under different environments and in different years will be used as candidate chromosome regions, which will help to improve the efficiency of selection for pod-seed related traits in soybean through molecular marker-assisted selection.
