A model for soybean inflorescence architecture based on morphological and gene expression analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Main conclusion

Soybean inflorescence architecture is controversial and regulation of its development unresolved. Our study provides an integral view of its architecture and critical information on the gene network controlling its development. Inflorescence architecture is a highly important trait depending on the arrangement and number of flowers in the inflorescence stem. It strongly contributes to plant morphological diversity, and since it determines the number of flowers and fruits, it has strong potential to influence crop yield. Soybean (Glycine max) is a highly relevant grain crop. However, despite many studies involving soybean inflorescence, no clear descriptions of its architecture are available, and the information on this question is controversial. In addition, though
