CRISPR/Cas9-mediated inactivation of the soybean agglutinin Le1 gene to improve grain quality [PDF]

Frontiers in Plant Science
IntroductionSoybean agglutinin (SBA) is a major antinutritional factor in soybean seeds, reducing digestibility in monogastric animals. The Le1 gene encodes the primary lectin accumulated in seeds.
