Soybean Seed Composition covers three decades of advances in
quantitative trait loci (QTL) mapping of seed protein, oil, fatty
acids, amino acids, sugars, mineral nutrients, isoflavones,
lunasin, and other beneficial compounds. It opens with coverage of
seed protein, oil, fatty acids, and amino acids and the effects
that genetic and environmental factors have on them. Detailed
discussion of QTL that control seed protein, oil, and fatty acids
follows, and the book also covers seed amino acids, macronutrients,
micronutrients, sugars, and other compounds that are key to
selection for crop improvement. The book also provides an overview
of two decades of QTL mapping of mineral deficiencies in soybean,
which sheds light on the importance of a balanced mineral nutrition
in soybean and other crops, elucidates salt stress tolerance QTL
mapping, which is another challenge that faces soybean and other
crop production worldwide. The importance of soybean seed
isoflavones from their biosynthesis and quantification methods to
locations and variations in seeds, roots, and leaves, to their QTL
mapping is discussed, as well as providing key information on
lunasin, a bioactive anticancer peptide in soybean seeds that will
help farmers and breeders to develop soybean cultivars with
improved seed isoflavones and lunasin content. The book will be of
interest to graduate students, academics, and researchers in the
fields of genetic and QTL mapping of important agronomic traits in
soybean and other crops.
