Seed coat color is a typical morphological trait that can be used to reveal the evolution of
soybean. The study of seed coat color-related traits in soybeans is of great significance for …

Seed coat color is a typical evolutionary trait. Identification of the genetic loci that control
seed coat color during the domestication of wild soybean could clarify the genetic variations …

Soybean seed coat exists in a range of colors from yellow, green, brown, black, to bicolor.
Classical genetic analysis suggested that soybean seed color was a moderately complex …

Annual wild soybean (Glycine soja Sieb. and Zucc.), the wild progenitor of the cultivated
soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.], is valuable for improving the later. The construction of a …

The phenotypic color of seeds is a complex agronomic trait and has economic and
biological significance. The genetic control and molecular regulation mechanisms have …

Common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) is consumed worldwide, with strong regional
preferences for seed appearance characteristics. Colors of the seed coat, hilum ring, and …

Soybean seed appearance quality greatly affects the marketability. The objective of this
study was to identify the quantitative trait loci (QTLs) that control the appearance quality of …

Seed coat color is an important seed quality trait in sesame. However, the genetic
mechanism of seed coat color variation remains elusive in sesame. We conducted a QTL …

The seed coat of soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merrill) must protect the seed but allow water
intake. Overprotection, causing impermeability, is assumed to be due to the presence of an …

Abstract Key message Two major QTLs associated with low seed coat deficiency of soybean
seeds were identified in two biparental populations, and three SNP markers were validated …
