Fig. 2 Yield versus harvest index in 1997 and 1998 for irrigated and nonirrigated treatments of A4922 and Manokin soybean over plants populations ranging from 6 to 134 plants m-2 (A). Yield versus biomass in 1997 and 1998 for the same treatments described in panel A (B). Data are the means of four replications for irrigation regime x cultivar x population combination. Yield was harvested by a plot combine, harvest index was from a separate end-of-season, six-plant subsample

Fig. 3 Relationship between seed number per square meter and (A) the ratio of crop growth rate (CGR) to seed growth rate (SGR) and (B) the ratio of plant growth rate (PGR) to seed growth rate. Data are the means of four replications for year x irrigation regime x cultivar x population combination. In 1997 the low population was 22 plants m-2, the high population was 134 plants m-2; in 1998 the low population was 20 plants m-2, the high population was 91 plants m-2
