Accumulation of high levels of free amino acids in soybean seeds through integration of mutations conferring seed protein deficiency.

Abstract excerpt

Soybean ( Glycine max [L.] Merr.) seeds are rich in protein, most of which is contributed by the major storage proteins glycinin (11S globulin) and beta-conglycinin (7S globulin). Null mutations for each of the subunits of these storage proteins were integrated by crossbreeding to yield a soybean line that lacks both glycinin and beta-conglycinin components. In spite of the absence of these two major storage...
