ECODA project number: Oilseeds East Activity 6

Objectives:

  1. Chemical fingerprinting of high-quality food-grade soybean cultivars.
  2. Identification of metabolites/biomarkers associated with market and consumer preferences.
  3. Identification of genetic and environmental factors affecting the accumulation of biomarkers and selected key health-beneficial metabolites in soybean.
  4. Ability to utilize fingerprinting profiles in comparison, selection and advancement of soybean varieties being developed for specific end-use markets.

This research is underway, so the research project’s final report is not available yet.

Identification of metabolites associated with market preferences and factors affecting their accumulation of health-beneficial compounds in food-grade soybean
