Origin, Maturity Group and Seed Coat Color Influence Carotenoid and Chlorophyll Concentrations in Soybean Seeds [PDF]
Plants, 2022 Soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merrill) seeds are abundant in physiologically active metabolites, including carotenoids and chlorophylls, and are used as an affordable source of functional foods that promote and maintain human health. The distribution and variation of soybean seed metabolites are influenced by plant genetic characteristics and environmental

Inheritance of seed coat color in sesame [PDF]
Pesquisa Agropecuária Brasileira, 2014 The objective of this work was to determine the inheritance mode of seed coat color in sesame. Two crosses and their reciprocals were performed: UCLA37 x UCV3 and UCLA90 x UCV3, of which UCLA37 and UCLA90 are white seed, and UCV3 is brown seed.

Transcriptional Profile of Soybean Seeds with Contrasting Seed Coat Color. [PDF]
Plants (Basel), 2023 Soybean is the primary source of vegetable protein and is used for various purposes, mainly to feed animals. This crop can have diverse seed coat colors, varying from yellow, black, brown, and green to bicolor. Black seed coat cultivars have already been assigned as favorable for both seed and grain production.

Seed coat color, weight and eye pattern inheritance in gamma-rays induced cowpea M2-mutant line
Journal of Genetic Engineering and Biotechnology, 2016 Gamma radiation is a very effective tool for inducing genetic variation in characters of many plants. Black seeds of M2 mutant were obtained after exposure of an Egyptian cowpea cultivar (Kaha 1) to a low dose of gamma rays.
