Ectopic expression of Arabidopsis thaliana Na+(K+)/H+ antiporter gene, AtNHX5, enhances soybean salt tolerance
Authors: X.X. Wu, J. Li, X.D. Wu1, Q. Liu, Z.K. Wang, S.S. Liu, S.N. Li, Y.L. Ma, J. Sun, L. Zhao, H.Y. Li, D.M. Li, W.B. Li and A.Y. Su
Drought and salt stresses are the two major factors influencing the yield and quality of crops worldwide. Na+(K+)/H+ antiporters (NHXs) are ubiquitous membrane proteins that play important roles in maintaining the cellular pH and Na+(K+) homeostasis. The model plant Arabidopsis potentially encodes six NHX genes, namely AtNHX1 .. Read More»

Agrobacterium-mediated transformation of Fusarium proliferatum
Authors: J. Bernardi-Wenzel, M.C. Quecine, J.L. Azevedo and J.A. Pamphile
Fusarium proliferatum is an important pathogen that is associated with plant diseases and primarily affects aerial plant parts by producing different mycotoxins, which are toxic to humans and animals. Within the last decade, this fungus has also been described as one of the causes of red root rot or sudden death syndrome in so.. Read More»

Genetic diversity of rhg1 and Rhg4 loci in wild soybeans resistant to soybean cyst nematode race 3
Authors: C.P. Yuan, Y.J. Wang, H.K. Zhao, L. Zhang, Y.M. Wang, X.D. Liu, X.F. Zhong and Y.S. Dong
Over-utilization of germplasms that are resistant to the soybean cyst nematode (SCN) in soybean breeding programs can lead to genetic vulnerability in resistant cultivars. Resistant wild soybean (Glycine soja) is considered an invaluable gene source for increasing the genetic diversity of SCN resistance. In this study, we geno.. Read More»

P1BS, a conserved motif involved in tolerance to phosphate starvation in soybean
Authors: L.H. Li, N. Guo, Z.Y. Wu, J.M. Zhao, J.T. Sun, X.T. Wang and H. Xing
Available phosphate (Pi) is a major limiting factor for plant growth, development, and productivity. Phosphate starvation response 1 (PHR1) is a binding dimer that binds to an imperfect palindromic sequence. PHR1-binding sequences (GnATATnC) exist in the promoter of Pi starvation-responsive structural genes, indicating an effect occurring downstream in th.. Read More»

A minimal DNA cassette as a vector for genetic transformation of soybean (Glycine max)
Authors: G.R. Vianna, F.J.L. Arag�£o and E.L. Rech
Currently, the market demands products committed to protecting human health and the environment, known as clean products. We developed a protocol using DNA fragments containing only the gene sequence of interest, to replace the circular vectors containing genes for antibiotic resistance and other undesirable sequences, for obt..

Identification of genes associated with the increased number of four-seed pods in soybean (Glycine max L.) using transcriptome analysis
Authors: Z.Z. Liu, D. Yao, J. Zhang, Z.L. Li, J. Ma, S.Y. Liu, J. Qu, S.Y. Guan, D.D. Wang, L.D. Pan, D. Wang and P.W. Wang
Seed number per pod is an important component of yield traits in soybean (Glycine max L.). In 2010, we identified a natural mutant with an increased number of four-seed pods from a soybean variety named ‘Jinong 18’ (JN18). Subsequent observations indicated that the trait was stably inherited. To identify and understand the function of genes as.. Read More»

Soybean Stem Fly, Melanagromyza sojae (Diptera: Agromyzidae), in the New World: detection of high genetic diversity from soybean fields in Brazil
Authors: J.A. Arnemann, W.T. Tay, T.K. Walsh H. Brier, K. Gordon,F. Hickmann, G. Ugalde and J.V.C. Guedes
Soybean Stem Fly (SSF), Melanagromyza sojae (Zehntner), belongs to the family Agromyzidae and is highly polyphagous, attacking many plant species of the family Fabaceae, including soybean and other beans. SSF is regarded as one of the most important pests in soybean fields of Asia (e.g., China, India), North East Africa (e.g.,.. Read More»
