Unlabelled: We have established a database named LegumeTFDB to provide access to transcription factor (TF) repertoires of three major legume species: soybean (Glycine max), Lotus japonicus and Medicago truncatula. LegumeTFDB integrates unique information for each TF gene and family, including sequence features, gene promoters, domain alignments, gene ontology (GO) assignment and sequence comparison data derived from comparative analysis with TFs found within legumes, in Arabidopsis, rice and poplar as well as with proteins in NCBI nr and UniProt. We also analyzed the promoter regions for all of the TFs to identify all types of cis-motifs provided by the PLACE database. Additionally, we supply hyperlinks to make available expression data of 2411 soybean TF genes. LegumeTFDB provides an important user-friendly public resource for comparative genomics and understanding of transcriptional regulation in agriculturally important legumes.

Brassinosteroids (BRs) are key phytohormones influencing soybean development, yet their role in symbiosis remains unclear. Here, the RNA-Seq was used to identify important gene associated with BRs and symbiotic nitrogen fixation, and the function of candidate gene was verified by transgenic hairy roots. The result shows that the RNA-Seq analysis was conducted in which BR signaling was found to suppress nodule formation and many DEGs enriched in immunity-related pathways.

The wall-associated kinase (WAK) gene family encodes functional cell wall-related proteins. These genes are widely presented in plants and serve as the receptors of plant cell membranes, which perceive the external environment changes and activate signaling pathways to participate in plant growth, development, defense, and stress response. However, the WAK gene family and the encoded proteins in soybean (Glycine max (L.

As a result of climate change, global temperatures are increasing, and water scarcity is on the rise. Soybean [ () Merr] is one of the most important crops in the world due to its importance as food and feed. One of the major limiting factors for soybean production is drought, which can cause up to 80% reduction in yield.

Soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merrill] is one of the most widely grown legumes in the world, with Brazil being its largest producer and exporter. Breeding programs in Brazil have resulted from multiple cycles of selection and recombination starting from a small number of USA cultivar ancestors in the 1950s and 1960s years.

Objectives: Soybeans have various positive effects on health, including anti-inflammatory and preventing kidney damage. There is concern regarding the phytoestrogen content due to the high isoflavone content in soybeans. Various forms of soybean processing have been tried; in this study, the hydrolysis method will be used to obtain the active substance Arginine-Glycine-Aspartate (RGD) tripeptide in soybean protein hydrolyzed by bromelain (SPHB).
