Hi Hiroshi,
It will also be helpful if you can collect
1) dates to different vegetative and reproductive stages
2) LAI and SLA values
Please have a look at soybean genetic coefficients described in Vol. 2 on
pages 218-219. This would give you more insight into what data you need to
collect.
Regards
Gopal

Subject: Field observations for soybean cultivar coefficients
> Dear DSSAT users:
>
> I plan to determine coefficients of Japanese soybean cultivars. According
to
> the DSSAT manual Vol. 3 (version 3.0, page 206), required field
observations
> are flowering and maturity dates, grain yield, biomass at maturity, grain
> number m-2, grain number per pod, and grain wt.
>
> Is that all, or is there any other type of field observation required or
> desirable to determine soybean cultivar coefficients?
