Loss-of-function mutations affecting a specific <it>Glycine max </it>R2R3 MYB transcription factor result in brown hilum and brown seed coats

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Although modern soybean cultivars feature yellow seed coats, with the only color variation found at the hila, the ancestral condition is black seed coats. Both seed coat and hila coloration are due to the presence of phenylpropanoid...
