The objective of this work was to evaluate the percentage of variables in 18 lines of soybean (Glycine max) in terms of germination, seed vigour, health and productivity. The experimental design utilized consisted of randon blocks, with four replications, and 18 treatments, according to soybean genotypes. The genotypes UFV94-426803 e BR92-06665 showed the longest and shortest germination times, 96 and 69%, respectively. This variable showed a positive correlation with seed vigour (r= +0.79), and a negative correlation with the incidence of Fusarium semitectum, Phomopsis sojae e Colletotrichum dematium. (r= -0.33, -0.39, e --0.26, respectively). In terms of seed vigour, the lines CSP-5 e BR93-6957 represented the highest and lowest percentages, 90 and 54.5%, respectively. There was a positive correlation between seed vigour and grain productivity (r= +0.59) and a negative correlation between seed vigour and the incidence of F. semitectum and P. sojae (r= -0.36 e --0.60, respectively). The incidence of F. semitectum was 47% in the FT-2002 line and 9% in the CSP-5 line. The incidence of P. sojae in the genotypes BR93-6957 and UFV94-426803 was 49.7 and 2.1%, respectively. The CSP line presented the highest incidence of C. dematium (3.8%). The genotypes FT-2001 and UFV94-1896 showed the highest (3.9 t/ha) and the lowest (2.48 t/ha) grain productivity. There was a negative correlation between this variable and the incidence of P. sojae (r= -0.44). The cultivars BR-16 e OCEPAR-3 presented intermediated values for all variables, but did not show smaller yields (grain production) than the other genotypes available in this experiment.
