Potential for the introduction of soybean into crop rotations in the Normandy region
2022
Europe is looking for alternatives for soybean importations and needs more local production of protein crops to meet the growing demand for proteins both for feed and food. One strategy to meet this demand could be to expand the soybean production areas (Karges et al, 2022). However, some preliminary information is required before starting producing a new crop. Firstly, farmers lack technical and economic references such as adapted technical management or potential yield but also the impact on gross margin of crop rotation. Then advisors, also needs similar information when working with farmers. Finally, collectors may need the potential total volume potentially produced in a given area to …
Exploring architectural traits and ecophysiological responses in soybean under heat and water stress: implications for climate change adaptation
2023
In the context of climate change, characterized by increasingly frequent droughts and heat waves, it is anticipated that the global soybean yields, the most extensively grown legume, will experience a significant decline in the foreseeable future.. There is thus an urgent need to improve its ability to maintain growth and productivity under such conditions. The objective of this study was to explore which plant traits make soybeans more resilient to heat and/or water stress, with a focus on plant architecture. For this purpose, two soybean genotypes, already shown to have contrasted root architecture (Maslard et al., 2021) were grown under controlledconditions in the high-throughput phenoty…
Ecophysiological processes underlying mineral nutrition of soybean under individual or combined heat and water stresses
2023
In a context of climate change, with more frequent drought events and heatwaves, it is predicted that soybean yields will drastically decrease in the near future. Soybean being the most widely grown legume crop in the world, there is an urgent need to improve its ability to sustain its growth under such conditions in order to guarantee high levels of productivity. The aim of this study was to explore the influence of heat and/or water stress on soybean growth and its water and mineral nutritions. Two soybean genotypes, displaying contrasted root architectures during their vegetative stage were grown under controlled conditions in the 4PMI high-throughput phenotyping platform where either op…

Abstract Soybean DAS‐44406‐6 expresses 5‐enolpyruvyl‐shikimate‐3‐phosphate synthase (2mEPSPS), conferring tolerance to glyphosate‐based herbicides, aryloxyalkanoate dioxygenase (AAD‐12), conferring tolerance to 2,4‐dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4‐D) and other related phenoxy herbicides, and phosphinothricin acetyl transferase (PAT), conferring tolerance to glufosinate ammonium‐based herbicides. The molecular characterisation data and bioinformatics analyses did not identify issues requiring assessment for food/feed safety. The agronomic and phenotypic characteristics revealed no relevant differences between soybean DAS‐44406‐6 and its conventional counterpart, except for pod count, seed cou…
