Summary: This study measured the vibration characteristics of a seed-metering device and investigated the seed-filling properties under vibration conditions. The results showed that vibration changed the horizontal position and filling angle of the seeds, affecting the seeding performance. A vibration frequency of 10-40 Hz resulted in a target seed rate of 88.67%-99.44%. Longitudinal distance had a larger impact on seed-filling performance than lateral distance. Adjusting the seed layer height could reduce the impact of vibration on field operations and improve seeding performance.

Summary: Photosynthetic efficiency of soybean pods and seeds contributes to yield by compensating for carbon loss. This study investigates the photosynthetic efficiency of soybean pods and seeds and its effect on mature seed weight and composition. The results show that soybean pod and seed photosynthesis contributes 13% to 14% of the mature seed weight and can compensate for 81% of carbon loss. Chlorophyll fluorescence analysis reveals the optimal stage for photosystem II efficiency in seeds and pods. This study provides quantitative information about the efficiency of soybean pod and seed photosynthesis during tissue development and its impact on yield.

Summary: GSD in soybeans is a condition where delayed leaf and stem maturation negatively impacts harvest efficiency and seed quality. This study investigates the relationship between temperature and GSD severity through growth chamber and field experiments, revealing the effects of high temperatures during the late seed-filling period on promoting GSD. The findings have implications for selecting appropriate soybean cropping seasons and cultivars to prevent GSD occurrence.

Summary: It is unclear how the interaction between seeds and silique walls affects oil biosynthesis during silique development in oilseed rape. This study found that silique walls contained more hexose and less sucrose than seeds. Additionally, genes related to fatty acid biosynthesis were activated over time, while genes related to photosynthesis were inhibited.

Summary: This study evaluated the effects of heat, water stress, and their interaction on soybean seed growth and filling. The results showed that water stress had a negative impact on seed weight and growth rate, and it played a dominant role over heat stress. Pods in the upper canopy positions were more likely to produce higher seed weight.

Summary: This study focuses on the degradation of fibers in rapeseed meal (RSM), sunflower seed meal (SFM), and soybean meal (SBM). It is found that RSM and SFM are more difficult to degrade compared to SBM, and the degradation is often incomplete. The addition of multi-carbohydrases can improve the degradation of fibers in RSM, while mechanical, (hydro)thermal, or chemical treatments have limited effect.

Summary: Poorly digestible proteins can lead to increased protein fermentation and the production of harmful metabolites in the ceca of broilers. In this study, a model was developed to create a contrast in protein fermentation by increasing the prececal flow of protein within ingredients. The results showed that toasting dRSM is a suitable model to increase protein flows into the hind-gut and evaluate the effects of protein fermentation.

Summary: This paper studied the effectiveness of plasma seed treatment on soybean seeds using different sources of cold atmospheric pressure plasma. The three types of plasma treatments were compared and analyzed their composition using spectroscopy techniques. The surface analysis of the plasma-treated seeds showed an increase in wettability and imbibition, without causing changes in seed surface morphology. DCSBD was found to be the most suitable source for soybean seed treatment in terms of germination improvement, treatment time, and energy efficiency.

Summary: Natural variation in seed composition of 13 Korean soybean varieties was investigated in different cultivation environments, showing that genotype, environment, and their interaction play a role in soybean seed composition. The transgenic soybean lines differed from non-transgenic commercial varieties in some components, but were equivalent to traditional varieties in most aspects.

Summary: In this study, a genome-wide association study was conducted to identify quantitative trait loci (QTL) associated with protein content (PC) in soybean. Eleven QTL were identified, with qPC-14 showing strong selection during soybean improvement. Fifteen candidate genes were found in qPC-14, and three of them showed differential expression during seed development. These findings will be valuable for molecular breeding efforts and exploring protein biosynthesis mechanisms in soybean.

Summary: US soybean yields have steadily increased, with new cultivars showing higher seed number and consistent yield gains. In contrast, Japanese cultivars have low yields and a trade-off between increased seed weight and decreased seed number. Improving both traits simultaneously has been difficult. Innovation is needed to resolve this trade-off.
