Appl. No.:

12/762097

Inventors:

John A. Schillinger - Cumming IA, US
Emily C. Dierking - Columbia MO, US

International Classification:

A01H 5/00
A01H 5/10
C12N 15/29
C12N 15/82

US Classification:

800312, 4353201, 536 236, 800284

Abstract:

Soybean seeds having an ultra-low raffinose and stachyose phenotype. Also disclosed is a mutant allele of soybean designated SG-ULRFO which results in an ultra-low raffinose and stachyose phenotype. The present invention also relates to a soybean seed, a soybean plant and parts of a soybean plant and a soybean hybrid which comprises the mutant allele. Also disclosed are ultra-low raffinose and stachyose soybean seeds having unexpectedly increased germination rates when compared with soybean lines not having a low raffinose and stachyose seed content. Also disclosed are mutant RS3 and RS4 genes with polymorphisms which contribute to the ultra-low raffinose and stachyose phenotype as described in the present invention. The present invention also relates for method of using the soybean seeds and plants of the present invention, to plants parts derived from the present invention, to methods of producing transgenic plants using the plants and seeds of the present invention.

Inventors:

Kristin D. Bilyeu - Columbia MO, US

International Classification:

C12Q 1/68

US Classification:

435 6

Abstract:

A mutation in the gene encoding the P34 protein in soybean which affects allergenicity is characterized. Soybean homozygous for a mutant allele comprising a four base pair insertion at the start codon of the gene encoding the P34 protein, exhibit significantly reduced P34 protein accumulation. Nucleic acid samples of soybean may be assayed for the presence of this insertion to detect the mutant allele, and soybean containing the allele may be selected for breeding to generate reduced P34 soybean lines. Molecular markers have been developed for detecting the presence or absence of the four base pair insertion.

A01H 5/00
A01H 5/10

US Classification:

800264, 800312

Abstract:

The present invention is directed to a soybean plant with mutations in FAD2-1A and FAD2-1B. Moreover, the present invention is directed to seeds from said plants with altered ratios of monosaturated and polyunsaturated fats. In particular, the present invention is directed to plants where the plants exhibit elevated levels of oleic acid.
