Proteins extracted from five soybean cultivars were separated by reversed-phase (RP) and size exclusion (SE) high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). A RP-HPLC method was developed that permits protein separation of nondefatted flours from soybean cultivars. RP-HPLC showed that protein of these cultivars could be classified into two groups, one of which contained intermediate component peaks under identical conditions. Genetically closely related cultivars exhibited only small differences in their RP-HPLC chromatograms. Size exclusion high performance liquid chromatography (SE-HPLC) resolved extracts of nondefatted flours from various soybean cultivars into six common peaks which accounted for 80 to 94% of the total peak area. Soybean cultivars were primarily identified by the percent area of their fifth peak (fraction F5) which had the highest variability of the total peak area. Seed protein of the cultivars was closely related with the area percent of peak F2 (r = 0.91). SE-HPLC proved to be a rapid one step quantitative method with potential for assessing soybean cultivars on the basis of protein content.

Background: Fomesafen is a selective herbicide widely used to control post-emergent broad-leaf weeds in soybean and peanut fields. Because of its persistent nature in soil, it can suppress subsequent crops, including wheat. There is limited information focusing on methods of protecting wheat from fomesafen injury by soil residue.

Members of the B-Box (BBX) family of proteins play crucial roles in the growth and development of rice. Here, we identified a rice BBX protein, Oryza sativa BBX2 (OsBBX2), which exhibits the highest expression in the root. The transcription of follows a diurnal rhythm under photoperiodic conditions, peaking at dawn.

Background: Additional to total protein content, the amino acid (AA) profile is important to the nutritional value of soybean seed. The AA profile in soybean seed is a complex quantitative trait controlled by multiple interconnected genes and pathways controlling the accumulation of each AA. With a total of 621 soybean germplasm, we used three genome-wide association study (GWAS)-based approaches to investigate the genomic regions controlling the AA content and profile in soybean.
