This is the final report on a short-term emergency grant to complete the 2023 on-going field research by several investigators of the FY23 Meal Protein Project (Project # 2333-203-0101) that was discontinued by USB. This emergency support from USB helped the investigators to harvest breeding lines, germplasm, cultivars, mapping populations, early (F1-F4) generation breeding materials that were in the 2023 field, complete postharvest processing, collect necessary data and preserve the lines in safe storage for future research and releases. The fall data (e.g., maturity, lodging, plant height, pubescence color, etc) collection for harvesting of all materials and the post-harvest processing of the harvested materials by the eight participating investigators were completed successfully. We have harvested more than 8,000 yield plots (USB-Diversity Regional Trials, the instate replicated multi-location preliminary and advanced trials by each participant), 10,000 plant rows, 15,000 single plants, thousands of F1-F4 seeds of breeding populations that were in development. More than 15 mapping populations in development (to map protein and amino acid genes) were also harvested. Several new manuscripts, based on research from past Meal Protein projects were submitted to journals for publication as well.
