like genes are associated with the development of primary root at in soybean.

Root architecture traits are belowground traits that harness moisture and nutrients from the soil and are equally important to above-ground traits in crop improvement. In soybean, the root length locus was previously mapped on chromosome 16. The has been characterized by transcriptome analysis of roots in near-isogenic lines (NILs), gene expression analysis in a pair of lines contrasting with alleles of , and differential gene expression analysis in germplasm accessions contrasting with root length.

Development of KASP markers assisted with soybean drought tolerance in the germination stage based on GWAS.

Soybean [(L.)Merr.] is a leading oil-bearing crop and cultivated globally over a vast scale.

A genome-wide association analysis for salt tolerance during the soybean germination stage and development of KASP markers.

Salt stress poses a significant challenge to crop productivity, and understanding the genetic basis of salt tolerance is paramount for breeding resilient soybean varieties. In this study, a soybean natural population was evaluated for salt tolerance during the germination stage, focusing on key germination traits, including germination rate (GR), germination energy (GE), and germination index (GI). It was seen that under salt stress, obvious inhibitions were found on these traits, with GR, GE, and GI diminishing by 32% to 54% when compared to normal conditions.

Identification and Characterization of Wheat- 7M (7A) Disomic Substitution Lines with Stripe Rust and Powdery Mildew Resistance.

(MM, 2 = 2 = 14), an important diploid species from the wheat tertiary gene pool, contains many unique genes/traits of potential use for wheat breeding, such as disease resistance. In this study, three sister lines, NAL-32, NAL-33, and NAL-34, were identified from a wheat-. distant cross using fluorescence in situ hybridization, simple sequence repeat markers, and PCR-based unique gene markers combined with single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) array analysis.

A Major and Stable Quantitative Trait Locus for Seed Size and Shape Traits in a Soybean RIL Population.

Seed size and shape traits are important determinants of seed yield and appearance quality in soybean [ (L.) Merr.].

Mapping and validation of a major QTL for primary root length of soybean seedlings grown in hydroponic conditions.

Background: The root system provides nutrient absorption and is closely related to abiotic stress tolerance, but it is difficult to study the roots under field conditions. This study was conducted to identify quantitative trait loci (QTL) associated with primary root length (PRL) during soybean seedling growth in hydroponic conditions. A total of 103 F recombinant inbred lines (RILs) derived from a cross between K099 (short primary root) and Fendou 16 (long primary root) were used to identify QTL for PRL in soybean.

Identification and validation of QTLs for 100-seed weight using chromosome segment substitution lines in soybean.

The 100-seed weight (100SW) is one of the most important traits that control soybean yield. To identify the quantitative trait loci (QTL) of 100SW, 120 BCF chromosome segment substitution lines (CSSLs) were cultivated over three years. The CSSLs were developed from a cross between the cultivated soybean variety 'Jackson' and the wild soybean accession 'JWS156-1', followed by continuous backcrossing using 'Jackson' variety as a recurrent parent.

Ncl Synchronously Regulates Na+, K+, and Cl- in Soybean and Greatly Increases the Grain Yield in Saline Field Conditions.

Salt stress inhibits soybean growth and reduces gain yield. Genetic improvement of salt tolerance is essential for sustainable soybean production in saline areas. In this study, we isolated a gene (Ncl) that could synchronously regulate the transport and accumulation of Na(+), K(+), and Cl(-) from a Brazilian soybean cultivar FT-Abyara using map-based cloning strategy.

Genetic studies on saline and sodic tolerances in soybean.

Salt-affected soils are generally classified into two main categories: saline and sodic (alkaline). Developing and using soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr) cultivars with high salt tolerance is an effective way of maintaining sustainable production in areas where soybean growth is threatened by salt stress.

QTL mapping of domestication-related traits in soybean (Glycine max).

Background And Aims: Understanding the genetic basis underlying domestication-related traits (DRTs) is important in order to use wild germplasm efficiently for improving yield, stress tolerance and quality of crops. This study was conducted to characterize the genetic basis of DRTs in soybean (Glycine max) using quantitative trait locus (QTL) mapping.

Methods: A population of 96 recombinant inbred lines derived from a cultivated (ssp.
