Supplementary Material 6 contains associations for 40 seed trait related Quantitative Trait Loci (QTLs) and the genes located within their genomic regions. The dataset was authored by Jakob Bruggink and published on figshare under a CC-BY-4.0 license. It was last updated on May 7, 2026.
Use Cases
- Identify candidate genes for seed weight based on QTL positional overlaps.
- Validate known seed trait QTLs by examining the genes listed within their regions.
- Perform comparative genomics analyses linking transcriptomic data to phenotypic QTLs.
- Prioritize genes for functional validation in soybean breeding programs.
Strengths
- Dataset explicitly lists 40 seed trait related QTLs.
- File size is 139.0 KB, indicating a focused and manageable dataset.
- License is CC-BY-4.0, permitting open reuse and modification.
Limitations
- Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
- Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
- Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download.
