The U.S. Census Bureau projects the world’s population will top more than nine billion by 2050. Today, soybeans account for 56 % of the world oilseed production and 68 % of the world protein meal consumption, with U.S. soybean production accounting for 33 % of the world soybean production. So, to meet the demand of the world’s growing population and of the livestock industry improvements in both the composition and the yield of soybean is essential.
The primary objective of this project was to use molecular markers to identify genomic regions associated with amino acid composition and yield in soybean. …
