Brief Project Summary:

Schillinger Genetics has developed new soybean varieties with high levels of protein (45%) and low levels of oligosaccharides (1%). They have also developed three soybean varieties with high levels of oleic acid. These varieties have been evaluated and selected lines have high yield and excellent agronomics. This project will assist in the crossing of soybean varieties with superior nutritional traits with lines with high oleic acid levels.
