Fig. 3. Dry weight (DW) and moisture content (MC) of developing soybean seeds harvested from plants exposed to drought stress treatments at beginning seed fill (R₅) in the greenhouse and the field experiments. a) Seed dry weight (mg) and moisture content (percentage based on wet weight) of developing soybean seeds from plants exposed to well-watered (WW), gradual stress (GS), and sudden stress (SS) treatments in the greenhouse experiment. b) Seed dry weight (mg) and moisture content (percentage based on wet weight) of developing seeds from plants grown under irrigated (I) and nonirrigated (NI) conditions in the field. Means ± standard error (n = 3–4).
