Brief Project Summary:

The goal of this project involves identifying and isolating genes, or germplasm, from cultivated and wild soybean that can be used to improve yield, seed quality, pest resistance and energy, nutrient and water use efficiency in soybean plants. The project provides for innovative approaches to solve practical problems facing soybean producers in South Dakota.

Information And Results
Project Deliverables

Outcomes include: 324 soybean lines were analyzed for protein, oil, fatty acids, fiber, ashes, and amino acids. Two high-yield and good quality lines were approved for seed increase and release by 2013: SD06-611 and SD03-2154. Due to limited funds, no anti-nutritional compound analysis occurred. 320 soybean lines were replanted in two locations for further analysis. New calibrations for NIR analysis of anti-nutrient compounds were tried.

Final Project Results

Two high-yield and good quality lines were found to be good candidates for aquafeed use, if soybean meal were to replace fishmeal: SD06-611 and SD03-2154.

The United Soybean Research Retention policy will display final reports with the project once completed but working files will be purged after three years. And financial information after seven years. All pertinent information is in the final report or if you want more information, please contact the project lead at your state soybean organization or principal investigator listed on the project.
