Identification of the three genotypic classes for soybean lipoxygenases 1 and 3 based on enzymatic activity

  • Published:

Abstract

A non-destructive micro-test which allow the identification of homozygous and heterozygous soybean seeds for lipoxygenases (LOX) 1 and 3 has been developed based on determination of their enzymatic activities. Identification of heterozygous seeds will be extremely important in backcross breeding programme to expedite the creation of new soybean lines lacking seed lipoxygenases because no selfings are necessary during the odd numbered generations.
