Sulfur metabolism in Glycine max [L.] Merr : characterization of serine acetyletransferase and O-acetylserine (thiol) lyase
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
procedure costing the animal industry millions of dollars annually. Efforts to enhance the sulfur amino acid content of soybean protein through genetic engineering and traditional breeding have met with limited success. Expression of exogenous high...
Characterization of raffinose synthase genes in soybean
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)
induced mutation. Perfect molecular marker assays have been developed and can be utilized for more efficient breeding....
Viability, vigor, and field performance of a low phytic acid, high phytase activity soybean line, CAPPA
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)
Plants store inorganic phosphate (Pi) in seeds as phytic acid (PA). Phytic acid chelates essential macro and micronutrients in developing seeds forming phytate, which is nutritionally unavailable to monogastric livestock. ...
The role of genetic and phenotypic diversity in maize and its effects on aflatoxin accumulation by the fungus Aspergillus flavus
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)
Accumulation of the potent carcinogen, aflatoxin, in maize poses a significant health risk to humans and animals. Most commercially grown maize lines are susceptible to infection by the fungus that synthesizes aflatoxin, ...
The effect of environment on seed composition of tofu and natto soybean cultivars
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
Composition of soybean seeds is important to manufacturers of tofu and natto food products. The effect of environment on seed composition of tofu and natto soybean cultivars was measured in Missouri in 2004 and 2005. The ...
