Genome-Wide Association Study of Partial Resistance to in Wild Soybeans from Heilongjiang Province, China.

Phytophthora root rot (PRR) is a destructive disease of soybeans ( (L.) Merr) caused by (). The most effective way to prevent the disease is growing resistant or tolerant varieties.

Identification and expression profiles analysis of odorant-binding proteins in soybean aphid, Aphis glycines (Hemiptera: Aphididae).

The soybean aphid, Aphis glycines, is an extreme specialist and an important invasive pest that relies on olfaction for behaviors such as feeding, mating, and foraging. Odorant-binding proteins (OBPs) play a vital role in olfaction by binding to volatile compounds and by regulating insect sensing of the environment. In this work we used rapid amplification of complementary DNA ends technology to identify and characterize 10 genes encoding A.
