Instability of a novel multicolored flower trait in inbred and outcrossed soybean lines

Article Abstract:

A study was conducted to analyze the stability of a unique multicolored flower trait in inbred and outcrossed soybean lines. The soybeans were grown under standard conditions while crosses between mutable lines were carried out in field plots. Results indicated that the colors of the soybean seed coat were produced by a pieiotropic effect on the wp/wp flower color genotype with the homozygous i/i genotype for seed color. Findings also showed that a number of loci segregated independently.

Four genes affecting seed traits in soybeans map to linkage group F

Article Abstract:

The shriveled seed gene (Shr) is connected with Cgy1, which encodes the alpha' subunit of beta-congylcinin. These are situated on linkage group F, along with Gy5 (A3B4 subunit of glycinin) and B1 (seed coat bloom). The fact that genes connected with normal seed development are situated together on a single linkage group gives a valuable insight into soybean genome organization and evolution. It may provide information about evolution of storage protein gene families in soybean.
