A soybean
cultivar, designated S040117, is disclosed. The invention relates to the seeds of soybean
cultivar S040117, to the plants of soybean S040117, to
plant parts of soybean
cultivar S040117 and to methods for producing a soybean
plant produced by crossing soybean cultivar S040117 with itself or with another soybean variety. The invention also relates to methods for producing a soybean
plant containing in its genetic material one or more transgenes and to the transgenic soybean plants and plant parts produced by those methods. This invention also relates to soybean cultivars or breeding cultivars and plant parts derived from soybean variety S040117, to methods for producing other soybean cultivars, lines or plant parts derived from soybean cultivar S040117 and to the soybean plants, varieties, and their parts derived from use of those methods. The invention further relates to
hybrid soybean seeds, plants and plant parts produced by crossing the cultivar S040117 with another soybean cultivar.
