Description: |
Global analyses on gene expression profiles in two soybean species, Nanahomare and Tamahomare was performed using DNA microarray technique. Nanahomare is glycinin deficient species, and is high in free amino acid content. Tamahomare is parent species of Nanahomare. In Nanahomare, stress related genes glutathione S-transferase and ascorbate peroxidase had higher expression than in Tamahomare, which suggests glycinin-deficiency caused stress in soy seeds, and that it lead Nanahomare to increase in free amino acid content. Keywords: storage protein deficiency |
