Other claims from this paper (6)
- Association Isoflavone accumulation in wild soybean W05 seeds was faster than in cultivated soybean C08 seeds.
- Association Trade-off analyses suggest high biomass requirement in cultivars could limit resource reallocation to secondary metabolite production.
- Association Seeds with higher carbohydrate contents favour isoflavone production in soybean.
- Association Seeds with the highest protein and oil contents had the lowest isoflavone contents in soybean.
- Mechanism Isoflavone accumulation depended on both intrinsic biosynthesis and direct contribution from the plant.
- Association Isoflavone production in mature soybean seeds was influenced by biomass composition.
