Soybean [Glycine max(L.) Merr.] is a globally important crop due to its valuable seed composition, versatile feed, food, and industrial end-uses, and consistent genetic gain. Successful genetic gain in soybean has led to widespread adaptation and increased value for producers, processors, and consumers. Specific focus on the nutritional quality of soybean seed composition for food and feed has further elucidated genetic knowledge and bolstered breeding progress. Seed components are historical and current targets for soybean breeders seeking to improve nutritional quality of soybean. This article reviews genetic and genomic foundations for improvement of nutritionally important traits, such as protein and …
Quantitative Trait Loci Analysis Of A Ril Soybean Population To Determine Chromosomal Regions Governing Seed Protein, Oil, And Linolenic Acid Content, Ronald E. Moore
Quantitative Trait Loci Analysis Of A Ril Soybean Population To Determine Chromosomal Regions Governing Seed Protein, Oil, And Linolenic Acid Content, Ronald E. Moore
Masters Theses
180 RILs (recombinant inbred lines) segregating for protein, oil, and fatty acids were produced from a cross between TN12-4098 and TN13-4303. These lines were grown across three locations spread horizontally across Tennessee: Research Education Center at Milan (RECM), Highland Rim Research and Education Center (HRREC), and East Tennessee Research and Education Center (ETREC) in 2018 and 2019. 21 quantitative trait loci (QTLs) spanning 7 chromosomes were found using WinQTLCart2.5.

Investigation Of The Individual Soybean Root Nodule Microbiome, Parris Mica Mayhood
MSU Graduate Theses
Soybean is a valuable crop that establishes a symbiotic association with nitrogen-fixing microorganisms. Previous research suggests members of the genus Bradyrhizobium are the major nitrogen-fixing inhabitants of soybean root nodules. However, results from recent studies identified the presence of other bacteria, so called non-rhizobial endophytes (NREs), inside root nodules. All previous research has pooled nodules of different plants for bacterial community analysis, but this study investigated the presence and relative abundance of rhizobia and NREs within multiple root nodules of a single plant. Three sites were selected on Kendrick Farm in Springfield, MO, where three plants and rhizosphere soil were …

Soybean (Glycine max [L.] Merr) is an important crop grown in Canada, generating $2.4 billion in sales. Though this number may be promising, soybean farmers lose about $50 million worth of yield annually due to root and stem rot disease caused by Phytophthora sojae. Many strategies have been developed to combat the infection; however, these methods are prohibitively expensive. A ‘cost effective’ approach to this problem is to select a trait naturally found in soybean that can increase resistance. One such trait is the increased production of root glyceollins. One of the key enzymes exclusively involved in glyceollin …
Effects Of Leaflet Orientation And Root Morphology On Physiological Traits And Yield In Soybeans., Richard Dewayne Johnson
Effects Of Leaflet Orientation And Root Morphology On Physiological Traits And Yield In Soybeans., Richard Dewayne Johnson
Doctoral Dissertations
Drought is the most important abiotic stress adversely affecting soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.) yield. Leaflet orientation has been shown to reduce leaflet temperatures and transpiration while root morphology has been related to slower wilting phenotypes. The objective of this study was to investigate effects of leaflet orientation and rooting morphology on whole plant transpiration, yield, water use efficiency, and other physiological traits in soybeans using grafting techniques, population lines, near-isogenic lines, and restrained leaf canopy experiments. Experiments were conducted in Knoxville, TN with additional yield trial plots at Springfield, Spring Hill, and Milan, TN. Data were collected on …
