Soybean Saline-Alkaline Stress Tolerance GWAS for 198 Accessions

Ming Yuan's dataset presents genome-wide association study (GWAS) results for saline-alkaline stress tolerance in soybean. The data is based on phenotypic evaluation of 198 soybean accessions for four germination traits and analysis of 385,087 high-quality SNPs, identifying 428 candidate genes. It was last updated on 2026-05-08.

Use Cases

• Identify candidate genes for saline-alkaline stress tolerance based on GWAS results.
• Validate known salinity tolerance genes like GmLecRlk and GmERF34 using the provided SNP data.
• Characterize superior haplotypes for genes like Glyma.07G004400 and Glyma.15G022000 associated with improved tolerance.
• Analyze genetic diversity for stress adaptability within a panel of 198 soybean accessions.

Strengths

• Includes data from a core panel of 198 soybean accessions, confirming substantial genetic diversity.
• Analysis is based on 385,087 high-quality single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs).
• Identifies 428 candidate genes and validates two previously reported salinity tolerance genes.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• The dataset is small (62.6 KB), indicating it likely contains summary results rather than raw genomic data.
