Satoshi Watanabe,Rumiko Hideshima,Zhengjun Xia,Yasutaka Tsubokura,Shusei Sato,Yumi Nakamoto,Naoki Yamanaka,Ryoji Takahashi,Masao Ishimoto,Toyoaki Anai,Satoshi Tabata,Kyuya Harada +11 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that the variation in phytochrome A may contribute to the complex systems of soybean flowering response and geographic adaptation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bruchid resistance of transgenic azuki bean expressing seed α‐amylase inhibitor of common bean
TL;DR: Various species of bruchid beetles including Callosobruchus chinensis, C. maculatus and C. analis cause post‐harvest damage of azuki bean seeds, an important East Asian grain legume because the α‐amylase in the midguts of these insects is inhibited by theαAI present in common bean seeds.
Journal ArticleDOI
Growth Inhibitory Effects of an α-Amylase Inhibitor from the Kidney Bean, Phaseolus vulgaris (L.) on Three Species of Bruchids (Coleoptera : Bruchidae)

Journal ArticleDOI
Protective mechanism of the Mexican bean weevil against high levels of alpha-amylase inhibitor in the common bean.
TL;DR: Seeds of the common bean protected against predation by certain species of bruchids are suggested to be good candidates for genetic engineering to achieve resistance to Z. subfasciatus, insects that are common in the Americas.
Journal ArticleDOI

Tae Young Hwang,Takashi Sayama,Masakazu Takahashi,Yoshitake Takada,Yumi Nakamoto,Hideyuki Funatsuki,Hiroshi Hisano,Shigemi Sasamoto,Shusei Sato,Satoshi Tabata,Izumi Kono,Masako Hoshi,Masayoshi Hanawa,Chizuru Yano,Zhengjun Xia,Kyuya Harada,Keisuke Kitamura,Masao Ishimoto +17 more
TL;DR: This high-density linkage map should facilitate ongoing and future genomic research such as analysis of quantitative trait loci and positional cloning in addition to marker-assisted selection in soybean breeding.
