In major soybean‐producing regions such as the United States, farm yield has increased in recent years. This gain is accompanied by genetic improvements in net photosynthetic rate (PN). However, farm yields in Japan remain low and unchanged, suggesting a lack of progress in improving yield and the underlying PNthrough recent breeding. It is unclear how much Japanese breeders have improved PN, or whether the PNof Japanese cultivars is inferior to cultivars from the United States and, if so, which physiological traits should be improved to increase PNin Japanese cultivars. To answer these questions, we compared PNand related physiological traits of cultivars released during the past 60 yr in the Tohoku region of northern Japan (JP group) with those of cultivars from the Midwestern United States (U.S. group). In the U.S. group, PNincreased with year of release at both flowering and the beginning of seed filling (respectively, R2 and R5) stages, and was accompanied by an increase in leaf N content by area (Narea). This demonstrates improved PNresulting from recent breeding. In contrast, there was no difference in PNbetween old and new cultivars in the JP group, indicating that PNwas not improved by breeding. PNat R5 in the JP group was lower than in the U.S. group and was associated with lower stomatal conductance in the JP group. Nareaat R5 was higher in the JP group than in the U.S. group and was associated with lower photosynthetic N use efficiency in the JP group.
