A Chlorophyll a/b-Binding Protein Gene from Soybean (Glycine max [L.] Merr.)

A chlorophyll a/b-binding protein gene from soybean (Glycine max [L.] Merr.).

Soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr].

In this chapter we describe an Agrobacterium tumefaciens transformation method of soybean that utilizes mature half seeds and regeneration from the cotyledonary node region. This method results in fertile transformed soybean plants and transgenic seed in approximately 9 months. Using mature half seeds as starting material has proven to be a reliable method that does not require additional wound...

Early Identification of Herbicide Stress in Soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.) Using Chlorophyll Fluorescence Imaging Technology

Herbicides may damage soybean in conventional production systems. Chlorophyll fluorescence imaging technology has been applied to identify herbicide stress in weed species a few days after application. In this study, greenhouse experiments followed by field experiments at five sites were conducted to investigate if the chlorophyll fluorescence imaging is capable of identifying herbicide stress ...

Symbiosis-stimulated chitinase isoenzymes of soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.)

and to be colonized by arbuscular mycorrhiza (AM) fungi (Harrison, 1997). Often, nodule formation by a Isoforms of endochitinase in soybean were studied in given bacterial strain is restricted to only a few host plant relation to root symbiosis. Five selected cultivars difgenera, and varieties of a given legume species may differ fering in their nodulation potential were inoculated in nodule fo...

Soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.) cultivar tolerance to sulfentrazone

Sulfentrazone has excellent soil activity on many small-seeded broadleaf weeds, however, soybean injury in "eld experiments has been noted under certain environmental conditions. Injury levels in these "eld experiments have appeared to di!er in severity among soybean cultivars. Growth chamber studies were initiated with the objective of examining the suspected di!erences in tolerance among soyb...
