Abstract excerpt
Soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] is a major crop for global protein and oil production, yet most cultivated varieties contain only 35-42% protein. HJ117 is a soybean accession with high protein content (52.99%), but the genetic basis of this trait is not well characterized. Identifying the major loci controlling protein accumulation in HJ117 is necessary to develop improved high-protein varieties through...
