Abstract Oil accounts for about 50% of the value of soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.]. A changing marketplace demands soybean oil with reduced amounts of linoleic and linolenic acid to increase shelf‐life and with increased amount of oleic acid to compete with heart‐healthy oils. Meal accounts for the other half of the value of the crop.

COMBINATIONS OF MUTATIONS WITHIN PATHWAY PROVIDE FOR COMBINED TRAIT PHENOTYPES IN LINES WITH SACPD MUTATIONS IN SOYBEAN [PDF]
Stearic acid is one of the five major fatty acids produced in soybean. It is an 18 carbon fully saturated lipid and is known for neutral or positive effects on LDL cholesterol when consumed by humans. Unfortunately, stearic acid only accounts for about 4%

Exploring soybean integrated pest management in a changing agricultural environment: the impacts of decreasing ecosystem services, invasive species and specialty cultivars [PDF]
The soybean aphid, Aphis glycines Matsumura (Hemiptera: Aphididae) is a recently invasive pest to North America. Integrated pest management strategies exist for minimizing the impact of the soybean aphid on yield.
