  • Publication number: 20110003045
    Abstract: Soybean seeds having an ultra-low raffinose and stachyose phenotype. Also disclosed is a mutant allele of soybean designated SG-ULRFO which results in an ultra-low raffinose and stachyose phenotype. The present invention also relates to a soybean seed, a soybean plant and parts of a soybean plant and a soybean hybrid which comprises the mutant allele. Also disclosed are ultra-low raffinose and stachyose soybean seeds having unexpectedly increased germination rates when compared with soybean lines not having a low raffinose and stachyose seed content. Also disclosed are mutant RS3 and RS4 genes with polymorphisms which contribute to the ultra-low raffinose and stachyose phenotype as described in the present invention. The present invention also relates for method of using the soybean seeds and plants of the present invention, to plants parts derived from the present invention, to methods of producing transgenic plants using the plants and seeds of the present invention.

  • Publication number: 20050095345
    Abstract: Soy products having higher protein and natural soy oil content and methods and apparatus for producing high protein soy products from dehulled soybeans. The soy product contains at least five percent (5%) natural soy oil and at least forty percent (40%) protein in dry weight basis. The soy product is texturized and further contains over forty parts per million (40 ppm) tocopherols, over three percent (3%) isoflavones and over ten percent (10%) sugars. The protein content includes 11S and 7S protein in at least a 1.5:1 ratio. The methods include pressing dehulled soybeans to provide a pressed dehulled soybeans and grinding the pressed dehulled soybeans to provide soy flour. The soy flour is preprocessed to mix soy flour and water. The preprocessed soy flour is processed through an extruder to produce a soy product. A high protein soybean promotes texturization at high soy oil content levels. The shape and design of the extruder further promote texturization at high soy oil content levels.
