POWR1 is a domestication gene pleiotropically regulating seed quality and yield in soybean

In soybean production, level of seed protein frequently shows a negative correlation with seed oil content and yield. Here, the authors report a CCT gene pleiotropically regulates these traits and the selection of larger seeds determining allele leads to higher oil content but lower protein content...
