Redesigning soybean with improved oil and meal traits
Redesigning soybean with improved oil and meal traits

Soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] is an important crop worldwide; its overall value comes from seed oil and high protein meal. The development of soybean varieties with allele combinations for improved oil and meal quality is expected to provide a compositional value bundle for soybean. The high oleic and low linolenic acid seed oil trait (HOLL; > 70% oleic and < 3% linolenic acid) is targeted to optimize the health and functional properties of soybean oil.
