摘要： Objective: Soybean seeds are an important source of vegetable proteins for both food and industry worldwide. Conglycinins (7S) and glycinins (11S), which are two major families of storage proteins encoded by a small family of genes, account for about 70% of total soy seed protein. Mutant alleles of these genes are often necessary in certain breeding programs, as the relative abundance of these protein subunits affect amino acid composition and soy food properties. In this study, we set out to test the efficiency of the CRISPR/Cas9 system in editing soybean storage protein genes using Agrobacterium rhizogenes-mediated hairy root transformation system. Results: We designed and tested sgRNAs to target nine different major storage protein genes and detected DNA mutations in three storage protein genes in soybean hairy roots, at a ratio ranging from 3.8 to 43.7%. Our work provides a useful resource for future soybean breeders to engineer/develop varieties with mutations in seed storage proteins.
