TL;DR: This study shows pleiotropy as a mechanism underlying the domestication syndrome, and may pave new strategies for development of soybean varieties with increased seed oil content and reduced seed dust.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reviewed the research progress in soybean omics (genomics, transcriptomics, epigenomics and proteomics), germplasm development (germplasm resources and databases), gene discovery (genes that are responsible for important soybean traits including yield, flowering and maturity, seed quality, stress resistance, nodulation and domestication) and transformation technology during the past decade.

A Pd1–Ps–P1 Feedback Loop Controls Pubescence Density in Soybean
Shu-Lin Liu,Lei Fan,Zhi Liu,Xia Yang,Zhifang Zhang,Zongbiao Duan,Qianjin Liang,Muhammad Imran,Min Zhang,Zhixi Tian +9 more
TL;DR: Genetic and biochemical analyses revealed that Pd1 functions as a transcriptional activator that binds to the promoters of the P1 and Ps genes to induce their expression and that binding to its own promoter to act as a transcriptal inhibitor.
