Technical Abstract: Five soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] germplasm lines were developed by the Georgia Agricultural Experiment Stations and released in 2005: G95-Ben335 (Reg. No. GP-332, PI 644042), G95-Ben1818 (Reg. No. GP-333, PI 644043), G95-Ben2403 (Reg. No. GP-334, PI 644044), G95-Ben2448 (Reg. No. GP-335, PI 644045), and G95-Ben4123 (Reg. No. GP-336, PI 644046). They were selected within the productive soybean cultivar ‘Benning’ (Boerma et al., 1997) with differences in seed protein, seed oil, seed weight or maturity. These lines have utility as parents to develop elite breeding populations or use in the study of genetic and physiological mechanisms responsible for conditioning the phenotypes of the selected variants within Benning.
