Article Synopsis
- Genetic factors, fertilization, and climate affect the biomass of soybean seeds, impacting their market value and usage.
- This study examined protein and oil content, as well as amino and fatty acid composition, in 10 soybean cultivars across four locations.
- Results showed that environmental conditions lead to varying qualities; certain sites produced higher protein and oil amounts, but with inferior compositions of essential amino acids and oil stability.
- Key findings on histidine and glutamate revealed differences between Central and Northern growing sites, informing future breeding strategies for specialized soybeans.
