Electrophoretic Analyses of Soybean Seed Proteins

  • Chapter
Seed Analysis

Part of the book series: Modern Methods of Plant Analysis ((MOLMETHPLANT,volume 14))

Abstract

The soybean (Glycine max L. Merr.) is a crop whose seed is valued as a source of oil and protein. A number of diverse disciplines utilize electrophoresis in some capacity to study the soybean. Starch and polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE) are relatively simple technologies that rapidly screen for a large number of genetic markers. Electrophoretic systems detect seed storage proteins and more than 25 enzyme systems encoded by more than 60 genes. Protein electrophoresis has been and will continue to be a powerful tool in soybean research.
