Genetic variation of six desaturase genes in flax and their impact on fatty acid composition [PDF]
Theoretical and Applied Genetics, 2013 Flax (Linum usitatissimum L.) is one of the richest plant sources of omega-3 fatty acids praised for their health benefits. In this study, the extent of the genetic variability of genes encoding stearoyl-ACP desaturase (SAD), and fatty acid desaturase 2 (

Soybean (Glycine max) Haplotype Map (GmHapMap): a universal resource for soybean translational and functional genomics. [PDF]
Plant Biotechnol J, 2021 Summary Here, we describe a worldwide haplotype map for soybean (GmHapMap) constructed using whole‐genome sequence data for 1007 Glycine max accessions and yielding 14.9 million variants as well as 4.3 M tag single‐nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). When sampling random subsets of these accessions, the number of variants and tag SNPs plateaued beyond ...

Soybean Oil‐Quality Variants Identified by Large‐Scale Mutagenesis [PDF]
International Journal of Agronomy, Volume 2012, Issue 1, 2012., 2012 To identify genetic variation for fatty acid composition in mature soybean seeds, 4566 M3 generation seed samples from a chemically mutagenized population were subjected to fatty acid profiling by gas chromatography. In the population, a wide range of variation in the content for each of the five major fatty acids was observed.

Expression of the Arabidopsis WRINKLED 1 transcription factor leads to higher accumulation of palmitate in soybean seed [PDF]
Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 17, Issue 7, Page 1369-1379, July 2019., 2019 Summary Soybean (Glycine max [L.] Merr.) is a commodity crop highly valued for its protein and oil content. The high percentage of polyunsaturated fatty acids in soybean oil results in low oxidative stability, which is a key parameter for usage in baking, high temperature frying applications, and affects shelf life of packaged products containing ...

Targets and strategies to design soybean seed composition traits. [PDF]
Plant GenomeAbstract Breeders and geneticists have put great effort into enhancing soybean seed composition and developing elite varieties with desired traits. However, diverse end‐uses and changing consumer preferences present new challenges and opportunities to develop desired compositional profiles for the market.

The miR172a-ERF416/413 module regulates soybean seed traits. [PDF]
J Integr Plant BiolThe microRNA miR172a cleaves transcripts of the transcription factor genes ERF416 and ERF413. ERF416 and ERF413 affect seed size/weight by regulating genes encoding a regulator of cell proliferation and a sugar transporter. ERF416 haplotypes correlate with seed weight and total seed lipids, providing information for breeding high‐oil high‐yield soybean
