Cross-bred soybean (Glycine max) plants. Field of soy plants that have been cross-bred in an attempt to widen their genetic base so that they are more resistant to pests and diseases that may arise in the future. The plants on the left and centre were derived from crossing the soybean cultivar 'Williams 82' with a wild soybean. The plants on the right are 'Williams 82'. Photographed in the USA.
