Book Genetic Analysis of Quality Traits for Food grade Soybean  Glycine Max L  Merr   in a Breeding Population

Download or read book Genetic Analysis of Quality Traits for Food grade Soybean Glycine Max L Merr in a Breeding Population written by Mao Huang and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: Food-grade soybeans are a specialty crop with unique chemical and physical seed quality requirements. The tofu production market requires large, round soybean seed with a clear hilum and high protein content. The aim of this project was to detect QTL responsible for traits important in food-grade soybeans, and to provide information for the selection of food-grade soybeans in a breeding program. This study assessed seed shape, size, density, weight, protein content, and oil content in two independent populations of breeding lines and cultivars as well as textural traits of the tofu produced from a subset of those. By identifying the relationship between seed traits and tofu texture, the previously established positive correlation between seed protein content and the stiffness and gel strength of tofu were confirmed. Little to no correlations between seed size and shape measurements and the texture of tofu were detected, indicating that this consumer preference for large, round seeds may not relate to tofu quality. The effects of selection for specialty traits on the genetic differentiation within a breeding program were assessed, results shown that both parental and progeny selection contributed to genetic differentiation and population structure. Association mapping was conducted with 504 markers in a population of 242 breeding lines and cultivars, leading to the identification of 50 significant marker-trait associations. Of the 27 significant associations tested in another independent confirmation population consisting of 152 lines or cultivars, 12 were confirmed. These results can be directly applied to increase selection efficiency in a breeding program.

Book Soybean Improvement

Download or read book Soybean Improvement written by Shabir Hussain Wani and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-10-17 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Soybean (Glycine max L. (Merr)) is one of the most important crops worldwide. Soybean seeds are vital for both protein meal and vegetable oil. Soybean was domesticated in China, and since last 4-5 decades it has become one of the most widely grown crops around the globe. The crop is grown on an anticipated 6% of the world’s arable land, and since the 1970s, the area in soybean production has the highest percentage increase compared to any other major crop. It is a major crop in the United States, Brazil, China and Argentina and important in many other countries. The cultivated soybean has one wild annual relative, G. soja, and 23 wild perennial relatives. Soybean has spread to many Asian countries two to three thousand years ago, but was not known in the West until the 18th century. Among the various constraints responsible for decrease in soybean yields are the biotic and abiotic stresses which have recently increased as a result of changing climatic scenarios at global level. A lot of work has been done for cultivar development and germplasm enhancement through conventional plant breeding. This has resulted in development of numerous high yielding and climate resilient soybean varieties. Despite of this development, plant breeding is long-term by nature, resource dependent and climate dependent. Due to the advancement in genomics and phenomics, significant insights have been gained in the identification of genes for yield improvement, tolerance to biotic and abiotic stress and increased quality parameters in soybean. Molecular breeding has become routine and with the advent of next generation sequencing technologies resulting in SNP based molecular markers, soybean improvement has taken a new dimension and resulted in mapping of genes for various traits that include disease resistance, insect resistance, high oil content and improved yield. This book includes chapters from renowned potential soybean scientists to discuss the latest updates on soybean molecular and genetic perspectives to elucidate the complex mechanisms to develop biotic and abiotic stress resilience in soybean. Recent studies on the improvement of oil quality and yield in soybean have also been incorporated.

Book Genetic Analysis of Reproductive Traits in Soybean  Glycine Max  L   Merr

Download or read book Genetic Analysis of Reproductive Traits in Soybean Glycine Max L Merr written by I. Made Tasma and published by . This book was released on 2001 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ten of the 18 homologous and cloned flowering time gene sequences have been mapped. The gene sequences were mapped onto LGs A2 (CRY2), B1 and H (COLI), Al and B2 (PHYA), C1 (DET1 and LD), D2 (AP2), E and K (PHYB), F (COL2), L (FCA), and Q (CCA1). None of these cDNA sequences have been found to be directly associated with previously mapped QTL for flowering time. However, analyses of these candidate genes using NILs show that the FCA homolog was associated with maturity locus E3. The map positions and phenotypic data support that homologous gene sequence FCA is a strong candidate for maturity locus E3. Analyses of NILs suggest that PHYB homolog may be associated with maturity locus El. However, current data show El and PHYB mapped in different LGs.

Download or read book Evaluation and Genetic Analysis of Two Soybean Glycine Max L Merr Recombinant Inbred Line Populations Segregating for Resistance to Root Knot Nematode Meloidogyne Incognita written by Drew Wright and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the most economically important pathogens of US soybeans is the Southern Root Knot Nematode [(Meloidogyne incognita ) (Kofoid and White) Chitwood] (Mi). Evaluation and identification of resistance is highly important to the plant breeding program at SIUC. The main objective of this study was to screen within the greenhouse two F5:7 recombinant inbred line (RIL) (n =96) from crosses between LS90-1920 or LS97-1610 (resistant parents) with 'Spencer' (susceptible parent) to identify sources of resistance for Mi. Additionally, the RILs were evaluated in two locations in southern Illinois (Harrisburg and Dowell) in 2011 for several agronomic characteristics including yield performance. The phenotypic data collected from field and greenhouse experiments was used to select for superior lines within the two populations. The screening data was also used to identify single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers associated with Mi resistance. Initial screening of the 5,361 SNP markers indicated four SNP markers (ss247062763, ss247064854, ss247077423 and ss247067293) highly associated with resistance to Mi. The results will help accelerating selection practices, and have provided high yielding resistant lines for the creation of resistant commercial varieties.

Download or read book Characterization of a Diverse USDA Collection of Wild Soybean glycine Soja Siebold Zucc Accessions and Subsequent Mapping for Seed Composition and Agronomic Traits in a RIL Population written by Thang Cao La and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 183 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The relatively low genomic variation of current U.S. soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merill] cultivars constrains the improvement of grain yield, seed quality, and other agronomic traits within soybean breeding programs. Recently, a substantial effort has been undertaken to introduce novel genetic diversity present in wild soybean (Glycine soja Siebold & Zucc.) into new elite cultivars, in both public and private applied soybean breeding programs. The objectives of this research were to evaluate the phenotypic diversity within a core collection of 80 G. soja plant introductions (PIs) in the United States Department of Agriculture National Genetic Resources Program that were collected in China, Japan, Russia, and South Korea, and to analyze the correlations between agronomic and seed composition traits. Field tests were conducted in Missouri and North Carolina during three years, 2013, 2014, and 2015, in a randomized complete block design (n=3). The phenotypic data collected included plant maturity date, seed weight, and the seed concentration of protein, oil, essential amino acid, fatty acid, and soluble carbohydrates. Analyzing the data from six environments, we found genotype was a significant (p

Book Genetic Analysis of Sucrose Concentration in Soybean Seeds Using a Historical Soybean Genomic Panel

Download or read book Genetic Analysis of Sucrose Concentration in Soybean Seeds Using a Historical Soybean Genomic Panel written by Alexandra Ficht and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sucrose concentration in soybean (Glycine max L. Merr) seed is becoming an increasingly important trait for the soy food industry. The objectives of this thesis were to: 1) identify quantitative trait loci (QTL) for sucrose concentration, 2) explore the allelic variation present in a genomic panel for candidate genes related to sucrose synthesis in soybean, and 3) determine the effect of genotype (G), environment (E) and genotype-by-environment interaction (GE) on varying sucrose levels in the seed. A University of Guelph panel of 296 pedigree-related genotypes was used for this analysis. Significant G, E, and GE interaction effects were observed for sucrose over three years and four locations in Ontario, which allowed for determining the trait stability. QTL analysis was performed using single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) detected using a genotyping-by-sequencing (GBS) approach. A putative QTL was identified in the genomic region harbouring a potential gene involved in sucrose metabolism. Improved understanding of the genetics of sucrose biosynthesis allows for the future development of high sucrose soybean cultivars.
