Abstract excerpt
Soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.) seeds vary in their surface properties. The lustre, or glossiness, of seeds has been classified into several different phenotypes. Soybean seeds that have a dull lustre or moderate bloom (B) may also have abundant seed surface protein, namely, an abundance of the hydrophobic protein from soybean (HPS). The seed surface protein HPS is an allergen (Gly m 1) that causes asthma in...
