Soybean Functional Genomics

Soybean is one of the most valuable crops because of its wide usage as food, feed, and industrial materials. Soybean is a highly domesticated and improved crop with ability of symbiotic nitrogen fixation. In addition, soybean has diverse germplasms and the great adaptability that have led to its widespread planting areas. In recent years, the release of high-quality genomes has greatly contributed to the rapid progress in soybean functional genomics and molecular breeding. We strongly feel that it is necessary to devote a special issue to increase the impact of soybean research in the global plant and crop science community.

In this special issue with a theme of "Soybean Functional Genomics", we’d like to invite you to contribute to this special issue. The manuscript can be a review or research paper. A review should focus on a specific topic to provide an in-depth discussion of the current understanding of genetic, genomic, and molecular control of soybean traits or the practice of improving the traits using genomic and molecular technologies.
