Seed yield, determined mainly by seed numbers and weight, is the primary target of soybean breeding. Identifying genes underlying yield-related traits great significance. Through joint linkage mapping a genome-wide association study for 100-seed we cloned GmGA3ox1, gene encoding gibberellin 3β-hydroxylase, which key enzyme in synthesis pathway. Genome resequencing identified beneficial GmGA3ox1 haplotype contributing to high was further confirmed transformants. CRISPR/Cas9-generated gmga3ox1...
Photoperiod-sensitive plants such as soybean (Glycine max) often face threats from herbivorous insects throughout their whole growth period and especially during flowering; however, little is known about the relationship between plant flowering insect resistance. Here, we used gene editing, multiple omics, genetic diversity evolutionary analyses to confirm that calcium-dependent protein kinase GmCDPK38 plays a dual role in coordinating time regulation resistance of soybean. Haplotype 2...
Pod dehiscence (shattering) is the main cause of serious yield loss during soybean mechanical harvesting process. A better understanding genetic architecture and molecular mechanisms pod great significance for breeding. In this study, genome-wide association analysis (GWAS) with NJAU 355K SoySNP array was performed to detect single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated in an panel containing 211 accessions across five environments. total 163 SNPs were identified as significantly...
Abstract Key message Plant height of soybean is associated with a haplotype block on chromosome 19, which classified 211 accessions into five distinct groups showing significant differences for the target trait. Genetic variation pivotal crop improvement. Natural populations are precious genetic resources. However, efficient strategies targeted utilization these resources quantitative traits, such as plant (PH), scarce. Being an important agronomic trait yield and quality, it imperative to...
ABSTRACT Increasing plant photosynthetic capacity is a promising approach to boost yields, but it particularly challenging in C 3 crops, such as soybean ( Glycine max (L.) Merr.). Here, we identified GmFtsH25 , encoding member of the filamentation temperature‐sensitive protein H protease family, major gene involved photosynthesis, using linkage mapping and genome‐wide association study. Overexpressing resulted more grana thylakoid stacks chloroplasts increased efficiency starch content,...
Plant‐specific LBD ( LATERAL ORGAN BOUNDARIES Domain ) genes play critical roles in various plant growth and development processes. However, the number characteristics of soybean [ Glycine max (L.) Merr.] remain unknown. Here, we identified 90 homologous genome that phylogenetically clustered into two classes (I II). The majority GmLBD were evenly distributed across all 20 chromosomes, 77 (81.11%) them detected segmental duplicated regions. Furthermore, exon–intron organization motif...
YABBY genes play important roles in the growth and polar establishment of lateral organs such as leaves floral angiosperms. However, functions homologous are largely unknown soybean. In this study, we identified GmFILa encoding a transcription factor belonging to FIL subfamily. situ mRNA hybridization analysis indicated that had specific expression patterns leaf well flower bud primordia. Ectopic Arabidopsis thaliana altered partial abaxialization adaxial epidermises leaves. Besides,...
Identifying the genetic components underlying yield-related traits in soybean is crucial for improving its production and productivity. Here, 211 genotypes were evaluated across six environments four traits, including seed yield per plant (SYP), number of pods seeds 100-seed weight (HSW). Genome-wide association study (GWAS) genomic prediction (GP) analyses performed using 12,617 single nucleotide polymorphism markers from NJAU 355K SoySNP Array. A total 57 SNPs significantly associated with...
Abstract Plants have evolved complex defense mechanisms to withstand insect attack. Identification of plant endogenous resistance genes is great significance for understanding plant–herbivore interactions and improving crop resistance. Soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.) an important that often attacked by the common cutworm (CCW) (Spodoptera litura Fabricius). In this study, based on our transcriptomic data, gene GmVQ58, encoding a FxxxVQxxTG (VQ) motif-containing protein, was cloned...
Soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.], as a globally commercialized crop, is an important source of protein and oil for both humans livestock. With more frequent extreme weather disasters, abiotic stress has become one the critical factors restricting soybean production. Proline (Pro) well-known substance in plants that responds to stress. To identify potential effector genes involved resistance stress, we focused on pyrroline-5-carboxylate dehydrogenase (P5CDH) which key enzyme degradation...
Soybean provides essential protein and amino acids for humans animals, while sulfur-containing (SAA), including methionine (Met) cysteine (Cys), are very limited. In this study, we constructed a high-density bin-map with 3420 bin markers using 676 857 SNPs of recombinant-inbred line (RIL) population derived from cross between Kefeng no. 1 Nannong 1138-2. Quantitative trait loci (QTL) mapping was performed Cys, Met, SAA, the content bin-map. Twenty-five QTLs linked to these four traits were...
Soybean is frequently attacked by herbivorous pests throughout the growth period. Exploring anti-insect genes to improve insect resistance in soybean an important breeding goal. Here, we cloned and characterized gene for a quantitative trait locus (QTL) related resistance, Glyma.06g189600, which encodes CALCIUM-DEPENDENT PROTEIN KINASE17 (GmCDPK17) soybean. The pairwise sequence alignment analysis revealed that presumed protein of GmCDPK17 shares 52.06% similarity with GmCDPK38, known...
DNA methylation is a major, conserved epigenetic modification that influences many biological processes. Cotyledons are specialized tissues provide nutrition for seedlings at the early developmental stage. To investigate patterns of genomic germinated cotyledons in soybean ( Glycine max ) and its effect on cotyledon development, we performed genome-wide comparative analysis between curled-cotyledons cco mutant, which has abnormal cotyledons, corresponding wild type (WT) by whole-genome...
Downy mildew caused by Hyaloperonospora parasitica is a serious fungal disease in non-heading Chinese cabbage (Brassica campestris L. ssp. chinensis Makino). Pathogenesis-related 5 (PR-5) genes play an important role plant resistance to invasion. In this study, gene encoding pathogenesis-related 5-like (PR-5L) protein, named BcPR-5L, was successfully cloned from cabbage. The cDNA sequence of BcPR-5L 747 bp length. It encoded protein molecular mass 25.78 kDa, isoelectric point 4.42, and...
Rice (Oryza sativa L.) is one of the most important staple crops providing near half global population. With advance living standards, people demand for novel rice varieties with better quality eating and fragrance. Unfortunately, practical application pesticides to control stripe disease results a significant deterioration nutrition. Therefore, it an urgent need develop resistant good Here, we present strategy development new variety, Shangshida No. 15, by molecular markerassisted gene...
