This study identifies enhanced phenolic chemical defense as a key mechanism for resistance to multiple soybean cyst nematode populations in wild soybean.

The paper presents a high-density soybean haplotype map (GmHapMap-II) to enhance trait discovery and functional analysis by capturing genetic diversity and identifying novel genomic regions associated with traits like crude protein content and SCN resistance.

This study identifies a mutation in the Lf2 gene, which regulates leaflet number in soybean, and demonstrates its role in modulating leaf complexity.

This study compares root system architecture between soybean breeding lines and diverse landraces across developmental stages and soil environments, finding smaller root systems but greater plasticity in diversity lines.

The paper uses long-read sequencing to identify structural variations in soybean genomes linked to agronomic and quality traits.

This paper identifies recombination hotspots in soybean using SNP markers and finds they are enriched for specific motifs but not conserved between populations.

The paper develops a 1K SNP Molecular Inversion Probes (MIPs) set for soybean genomic selection, achieving high accuracy and cost-effectiveness for breeding programs.

The paper estimates genetic diversity and phylogenetic relationships among Glycine species using orthologous gene sets and finds perennials have higher diversity and may be valuable for climate resilience.

This paper fine maps the Ur-3 rust resistance locus in common bean to a 46.5 Kb region and develops a highly accurate KASP marker, SS68, for marker-assisted selection.
