Legumes, unlike most land plants, can form symbiotic root nodules with nitrogen‐fixing
bacteria to secure nitrogen for growth. The formation of nitrogen‐fixing nodules on legume …

Phosphate (Pi) is indispensable for life on this planet. However, for sessile land plants it is
poorly accessible. Therefore, plants have developed a variety of strategies for enhanced …

Soybean is one of the most important oilseed and fodder crops. Benefiting from the efforts of
soybean breeders and the development of breeding technology, large number of …

Legumes such as soybean are considered important crops as they provide proteins and oils
for humans and livestock around the world. Different from other crops, leguminous crops …

Soybean (Glycine max) is a major source of plant protein and oil. Soybean breeding has
benefited from advances in functional genomics. In particular, the release of soybean …

Phosphorus (P) is one of the essential macronutrients for plant growth and development,
and it is an integral part of the major organic components, including nucleic acids, proteins …

Soil is a living ecosystem, the health of which depends on fine interactions among its abiotic
and biotic components. These form a delicate equilibrium maintained through a multilayer …

As an essential nutrient element, phosphorus (P) is primarily acquired and translocated as
inorganic phosphate (Pi) by plant roots. Pi is often sequestered in the soil and becomes …

Abstract Soybean (Glycine max [L.] Merr.) is an important crop that provides protein and
vegetable oil for human consumption. As soybean is a photoperiod-sensitive crop, its …

In cereals and legumes, phytic acid (PA) is the principal phosphorus reserve that serves the
biosynthetic and nutritional demands of growing tissues during germination. Because of …
