Soy Beans

Soy beans, one of the most important global sources of protein and oil, is now the first major crop lagume species with a published complete draft genome sequence. As we talked about in class last week, food companies changed the genes of soybeans to increases in the plant's oil content to promote the use of soybean oil as a biofuel, make bigger crops, improved resistance to pests an diseases that currently claim large percentages of soybean crops, even to make improvement in the digestibility of soy beans by animals and humans.Yes, it seems like is good for us in many ways, but think about it, after that many genome sequences, are we eating the real soybeans, or the industury stuff made by the food companies?
