• Big losses for growers
• Frequently reported – soybean and canola (Brassica
napus)
• Global climate changes
• Introduction of soybean to low latitudes
• Brazil – 2º largest soybean producer
• Breeding programs
Why is chlorophyll retention a problem to be
considered?

Green Seeds:
•Reduction of up to 3 % point of total amount of oil•Higher acidity•Higher refining cost•Lower quality in storage → light - oxidation
Oxidation of the oil is influenced by the composition of fatty acids, oil processing, light, temperature,
concentration and type of oxygen, free fatty acids, mono and diacylglycerols, transition metals, peroxides,
thermally oxidized compounds, pigments and antioxidants.
Presence of chlorophyll in seeds = lower oil quality

How to address the green seed problem?
![Page 12: Genetic and molecular basis of chlorophyll retention in ...fapesp.br/eventos/2017/biobased/hilhorst.pdf · Genetic and molecular basis of chlorophyll retention in soybean seed Edvaldo](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042223/5ec9853fd46526441e313968/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Some research questions
1. Does chlorophyll directly affect soybeanseed quality? Or is it just a marker for thestage of seed ripening?
2. Why do seeds have chlorophyll, if it ispotentially damaging? Biological role?
3. Can we dissect the environmental from thegenetic causes of green seeds?

Multiple gene ontologies were enriched in soybean seeds produced under stress. Among the top-ranking ontologies was the photosynthetic process.
NYC1_1, PPH2, D1 and D2 are the most affected genes instressed/green seeds of the susceptible cultivar and maybe the major cause of the chlorophyll retention insoybean seeds.
Expression analysis suggests higher levels of the photosynthetic proteins D1, D2, A1 and A2 in stressed/green seeds.
![Page 26: Genetic and molecular basis of chlorophyll retention in ...fapesp.br/eventos/2017/biobased/hilhorst.pdf · Genetic and molecular basis of chlorophyll retention in soybean seed Edvaldo](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042223/5ec9853fd46526441e313968/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Higher expression of SGR1 (D1), SGR2 (D2), NYC1_1 and PPH2 in fully mature seeds of the tolerant cultivar allows
these seeds to cope with stressful conditions and complete chlorophyll degradation.
