Interpretive Summary: High demands for early-maturing conventional high-yielding and high-oil soybean cultivars in the food and special niche markets have led to the development and release of soybean cultivar S13-3851C. Seeds of S13-3851C have high oil content. S13-3851C is resistant to the diseases stem canker, sudden death syndrome, charcoal rot, and Phytophthora root rot. It showed high yield potential and broad adaptability in 113 environments across 12 states, yielding 102% of the local cultivar check averages and 103% of the test average in Missouri and other Southern states during the testing period from 2014 to 2018. Therefore, soybean S13-3851C is an excellent choice for soybean growers.

Technical Abstract: High demands for early-maturing conventional high-oil soybean cultivars in the food and special niche markets have led to the development and release of S13-3851C. It is an early maturity group IV (relative maturity 4.4) conventional soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] cultivar, developed from a conventional breeding scheme focusing on parental traits including high oil content, multiple disease resistance, and high yielding potential. S13-3851C has purple flowers, light tawny pubescence, tan pod wall, and indeterminate growth habit. Seeds of S13-3851C have black hilum and intermediate seed luster, with 230.8 g kg-1 of oil and 404.1 g kg-1 of protein contents on a dry weight basis. S13-3851C is resistant to stem canker [Diaporthe aspalathi Jansen, Castlebury & Crous, formerly named Diaporthe phaseolorum var meridionalis Jansen] (SC), sudden death syndrome [Fusarium virguliforme O’Donell & T. Aoki] (SDS), charcoal rot Macrophomina phaseolina Tassi Goid] (CR), and Phytophthora root rot [Phytophthora sojae M.J.Kaufmann & J.W.Gerdemann]. S13-3851 showed high yield potential and broad adaptability in 113 environments across 12 states, yielding 102% of the check average and 103% of the test average in Missouri and other Southern states during the testing period (2014-2018).
