Soybean is a major source of edible protein and oil. Oil content is a quantitative trait that is
significantly determined by genetic and environmental factors. Over the past 30 years, a …

Soybean is a crucial crop globally, serving as a significant source of unsaturated fatty acids
and protein in the human diet. However, further enhancements are required for the related …

The most important objectives of soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.) breeding are to increase
oil content and to improve oil quality. Although the biochemical processes of oil …

Attempts to alter seed oil content in soybean have been hampered by the complicated
genetic architecture as being controlled by multiple genes. In order to investigate the genetic …

Background Variation in seed oil composition and content among soybean varieties is
largely attributed to differences in transcript sequences and/or transcript accumulation of oil …

The nutritional value, flavor and stability of soybean oil are determined by its five dominant
fatty acids: saturated palmitic and stearic, monounsaturated oleic, and polyunsaturated …

Soybean oil is the most widely produced vegetable oil in the world and its content in
soybean seed is an important quality trait in breeding programs. More than 100 quantitative …

Increasing seed oil content is one of the most important breeding goals for soybean due to a
high global demand for edible vegetable oil. However, genetic improvement of seed oil …

Abstract Background Soybean (Glycine max L.) is one of the most important oil crops in the
world. It is desirable to increase oil yields from soybean, and so this has been a major goal …

Although the biochemical and genetic basis of lipid metabolism is clear in Arabidopsis, there
is limited information concerning the relevant genes in Glycine max (soybean). To address …
