Soybean production can be increased through the assembly of new superior varieties. In a plant gene assembly, it is necessary first to discover the characteristics of the parents. One way to find out these characteristics is to conduct a morphological study. The current study employed a randomized complete block design with three replications to 10 soybean lines. The longest young and mature pod was found in MLGG 0582. The thickest young pod was observed in MLGG 0583, while the widest was reported by MLGG 0617. MLGG 0276 had the thickest pod skin of all varieties. In mature plants, the widest and the thickest pods were found in MLGG 0582 and MLGG 0707, respectively. MLGG 0617 reported the longest, the widest, and the thickest seed. There was no positive correlation found among the characteristics of the young pods, except the thickness of the pods and the skin (0.816). However, in the mature plants, the characteristics of the pods were positively correlated with the characteristics of the seeds. © 2019 IOP Publishing Ltd. All rights reserved.
