Genotypic variation in response to soil water deficit in terms of dry matter growth, grain yield and its components of soybean were studied by growing plants under relatively low soil water deficit (wet treatment) and considerably high soil water deficit (dry treatment). The experiment was conducted at Faculty of Agriculture, Chiang Mai University during January to April, 1986. The varieties studied were SJ 1, SJ 2, SJ 4, SJ 5 and OCB. The dry treatment caused a reduction in seed yield of all varieties. The effects of the dry treatment were largely attributable to reduction in number of pods per plant and seed size, but there was no effect on number of seeds per pod. Although variety by watering treatment interaction had no effect on seed yield there was some difference in response to soil water deficit among varieties indicating variation of drought adaptation. SJ 2, SJ 4, and SJ 1 tended to show better performance under dry conditions than SJ 5 and OCB since they were less affected by soil water deficit in terms of seed yield production. In terms of growth and development of soybean it was found that the dry treatment significantly reduced plant height, leaf area index, total dry matter and crop growth rate of all varieties but there was no effect on node number. It was also found that soil water deficit enhanced seed maturity of all varieties. Although all varieties tended to show differences in response to drought in terms of growth, interaction effect of variety and watering treatment was found to be significant only on leaf area index and total dry matter production. OCB was more affected by soil water deficit in terms of LAI and dry matter production than the other varieties.
