Pod dehiscence (shattering) is the main cause of serious yield loss during the soybean mechanical harvesting process. A better understanding of the genetic architecture and molecular mechanisms of pod dehiscence is of great significance for soybean breeding. In this study, genome-wide association analysis (GWAS) with NJAU 355K SoySNP array was performed to detect single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with pod dehiscence in an association panel containing 211 accessions across five environments. A total of 163 SNPs were identified as significantly associated with pod dehiscence. Among these markers, 136 SNPs identified on chromosome 16 were located in the known QTL qPDH1. One, one, three, eleven, three, one, three, three and one SNPs were distributed on chromosome 1, 4, 6, 8, 9, 11, 17, 18, and 20, respectively. Favorable SNPs and six haplotypes were identified based on ten functional SNPs; among those Hap2 and Hap3 were considered as optimal haplotypes. In addition, based on GWAS results, the candidate gene Glyma09g06290 was identified. Quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) results and polymorphism analysis suggested that Glyma09g06290 might be involved in pod dehiscence. Furthermore, a derived cleaved amplified polymorphic sequences (dCAPS) marker for Glyma09g06290 was developed. Overall, the loci and genes identified in this study will be helpful in breeding soybean accessions resistant to pod dehiscence.
