Origin & Breeding History: '92Y83' (experimental designations XB28AD11, PH11207) is the result of a cross made in 2004 between 'XB27B05' and '93M11' in Illinois, USA. The modified single seed descent method and pedigree method were used to develop the variety. The F1-F2 generations were grown in Puerto Rico. The F3 was grown in Illinois and the F4 in Chili. The F5 generation onward were grown in Illinois and advanced based on yield for single plants and progeny rows. Single plant purification occurred in 2008 in Illinois. Wide area testing continued from 2009-2011 in the USA and Canada. Selection criteria included yield, maturity and resistance to Roundup branded herbicides, to Phytophthora rot (Phytophthora megasperma f. sp. glycinea), to soybean cyst nematode (Heterodera glycines) and Frogeye leaf spot (Cercospora sojina).

Tests & Trials: Test and trials for '92Y83' were conducted in Ridgetown, Ontario during the 2012 growing season. Plots consisted of 2 rows with a row length of 4 metres and a row spacing of 76 cm. Each plot was sown with approximately 225 seeds. There were 3 replications per variety arranged in a RCB design. Results were supported by the official technical examination report 201100188, purchased from the Plant Variety Protection Office, Beltsville, Maryland, USA.
