| Abstract | Sodium azide (NaN 3 ) ( 2 mM ) was used to induce mutation in black soybean variety CRWD for improvement of isofla vone content. The individual selections were made in M6, M7 and M8 generations, respectively. Both high levels of isoflavones and medium seed size traits were used as selection criteria. Across three growth seasons, the selected five NaN 3 -induced mutants accumulated more total isoflavones (average increases of 5 % to 25%) than their wild type vari ety CRWD. Four mutants yielded more (average increases of 17 % to 25%) than CRWD. Both mutants SA-M-03 (yel low cotyledon) and SA-M-05 (green cotyledon) are rich in isoflavones and may be useful in food and other applica tions. |
