Natural allelic diversities of GmPrx16 confer drought tolerance in soybean Open

Zhifang Zhang, Junkui Ma, Xia Yang, Zhi Liu, Yucheng Liu , et al. · 2023

Drought has a serious impact on agricultural production, which can result in production losses ranging between 30% and 90%, depending on the crop species (Hussain et al., 2019; Lesk et al., 2016). Soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] is an imp…

Genetic regulatory networks of soybean seed size, oil and protein contents Open

Zongbiao Duan, Qing Li, Hong Wang, Xuemei He, Min Zhang · 2023

As a leading oilseed crop that supplies plant oil and protein for daily human life, increasing yield and improving nutritional quality (high oil or protein) are the top two fundamental goals of soybean breeding. Seed size is one of the mos…

Natural variation of Dt2 determines branching in soybean Open

Qianjin Liang, Liyu Chen, Xia Yang, Hui Yang, Shulin Liu , et al. · 2022

Shoot branching is fundamentally important in determining soybean yield. Here, through genome-wide association study, we identify one predominant association locus on chromosome 18 that confers soybean branch number in the natural populati…

Natural allelic variation ofGmST05controlling seed size and quality in soybean Open

Zongbiao Duan, Min Zhang, Zhifang Zhang, Shan Liang, Lei Fan , et al. · 2022

Summary Seed size is one of the most important agronomic traits determining the yield of crops. Cloning the key genes controlling seed size and pyramiding their elite alleles will facilitate yield improvement. To date, few genes controllin…
