Effect of Synthetic Cytokinin Application on Pod Setting of Individual Florets within Raceme in Soybean

The application of synthetic cytokinin (6-benzylaminopurine, BA) to racemes of soybean genotype IX93-100 at 7 days after anthesis (DAA) enhanced pod-set percentage of the florets at the 5th position and above (numbered from the base on rachis).
