  • Does mother-of-ft-and-tfl1 regulate seed oil and protein in soybean?
  • It is essential to identify the major genetic components and understand their mechanism behind seed oil and protein in soybean. We report that MOTHER-OF-FT-AND-TFL1 (GmMFT) is the gene of a classical QTL that has been reported to regulate seed oil and protein content in many studies.
  • Does gmmft regulate soybean seed oil content?
  • By GWAS, positional cloning, and transgene studies, this work identified GmMFT as a major regulator of soybean seed oil content. The strong association signal between GmMFT and seed oil content demonstrated its major effect on seed oil content in soybean population.
  • What is cultivated soybean?
  • Cultivated soybean [ Glycine max (L.) Merr.] is a unique legume species that has 38%¨C42% protein, 18%¨C22% oil, and 4%¨C6% sucrose in seed and is commonly adapted to and grown in many areas in the world for human consumption, animal feed, and biodiesel production.
  • Are soybean seeds genetically related to oil and protein content?
  • To investigate the genetic basis of variation in oil and protein content in soybean seeds, a diverse collection of 421 predominantly Chinese soybean cultivars was genotyped using 1536 SNPs, mostly from candidate genes related to acyl-lipid metabolism and from regions harboring known QTLs [ 1 ].
  • Are seed weight and oil content related to Gene pyramiding in soybeans?
  • In conclusion, we dissected the genetic architecture of seed weight and oil content in soybean and disclosed the causal candidate genes by a combination of multiomics datasets, which advance our understanding of genetic regulation of gene expression in developing seeds and provide a valuable resource for gene pyramiding in soybean breeding.
  • Does soybean protein content affect seed oil content?
  • However, the negative correlations in soybean seeds between protein content and oil content as well as yield render it challenging to increase soybean protein content while maintaining the desired seed oil level and seed yield (Patil et al., 2017; Rincker et al., 2014).
