The soybean is a crop that could boost biofuels and fertilize fields. So in 2010, the JGI helped publish the original genome sequence for the soybean, Glycine max. With a full genome sequence, researchers have been able to look into soybean’s strengths – along with a fungus that threatens this important crop. Hear more about that work from researchers Gary Stacey (University of Missouri), Peter van Esse (The Sainsbury Laboratory) and Sebastien Duplessis (INRAE).Links from this episode:Find all episode transcripts on our websiteThe original Glycine max sequence: NatureOur contact info:Twitter: @JGIEmail: jgi-comms at lbl dot govGenome Insider is a production of the Joint Genome Institute.
