Soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.) is a typical short-day and thermophilic crop. This study aimed to reveal the required accumulative day length (ADL) and accumulative active temperature (AAT) for DSF (days of sowing to flowering) and DFM (days of flowering to maturity) in global soybeans. A sample consisted of 354 varieties from 27 countries in five geographic regions, which were tested in Nanjing, China in two spring-sowing and two summer-sowing seasons. The ADL and AAT were calculated from the climatological data provided by the Public Service of Nanjing Meteorological Bureau. The results showed that the average DSF and DFM of global soybeans were 41.0 d and 83.3 d, which required ADLDSF of 606.6 d·h and AATDSF of 1185.9 d·°C, ADLDFM of 1126.7 d·h and AATDFM of 2145.1 d·°C, respectively, all with a wide variation among/within geographic and MG(maturity-group)-set subpopulations. From the multiple regression of DSF and DFM on required ADL and AAT, the ADL, AAT and ADL×AAT contributed 38.5%, 44.79% and 17.10% to DSF variation and 86.98%, 11.42% and 0.54% to DFM variation, respectively, and their relative importance to DSF and DFM varied among the geographic and MG subpopulations. The geographic subpopulations matched only partially with the genomic marker clusters, indicating multiple genetic sources of each subpopulation and that genetic exchange happened among subpopulations.
