Inheritance of alleles for Cgy1 and Gy4 storage protein genes in soybean

Abstract
A cultivar lacking the glycinin subunit A5A4B3 (‘Raiden’) was crossed with one lacking the α′-subunit of β-conglycinin (‘Keburi’). Analysis of F2 and F3 progeny indicated that the missing bands of the A5A4B3 and the α′-subunit were each controlled by a recessive allele of two independently segregating genes. Gene symbols Gy4/gy4 and Cgy1/cgy1 were proposed for the genes which confer the presence or absence of the glycinin and conglycinin subunits, respectively.
