The Soybean Genome Gebunden

This book examines the application of soybean genome sequences to comparative structural and functional genomics. Since the availability of the soybean genome sequence has revolutionized molecular research on this important crop species the book also describes how the genome sequence has shaped research on transposon biology and applications for gene identification tilling and positional gene cloning. Further the book shows how the genome sequence influences research in the areas of genetic mapping marker development and genome-wide association mapping for identifying important trait ge nes and soybean breeding. In closing the economic and botanical aspects of the soybean are also addressed.
