Seed coat colour and structure are related to the seed dormancy and overwintering ability of crop-to-wild hybrid soybean [PDF]
AoB PLANTS, 2023 Abstract The possible persistence of genetically modified (GM) crop-to-wild hybrid seeds in the soil seed bank is a major concern in risk assessment and is closely related to seed characteristics such as dormancy. In the present study, we generated F3 hybrids via crosses between GM soybean accessions and wild soybean and evaluated the ...

Development and characterization of biparental mapping population for the properties of seed and seed coat applicable to seed longevity in soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merrill) [PDF]
BMC Plant BiologyBackground Short life span of soybean seed under ambient storage conditions is a serious challenge for crop production and germplasm maintenance. There are scarce reports on linkage mapping of QTLs for seed longevity, and the molecular mechanisms remain ...
