Soybean Sequences Associated with the FAP3 Locus

摘要

Compositions and methods for identifying soybean plants with reduced levels of saturated fatty acids are provided. Methods of making soybean plants with reduced levels of saturated fatty acids, e.g., through introgression of desired saturated fatty acid marker alleles and/or by transgenic production methods, as well as plants or germplasm made by these methods, are provided. Kits for selecting plants with reduced levels of saturated fatty acids are also provided.
